Rename XLogData protocol message to WALData

This name is only used as documentation, and using this name is
consistent with its byte being a 'w'.  Renaming it would also make the
use of a symbolic name based on the word "WAL" rather than the obsolete
"XLog" term more consistent, per future commits along the lines of
37c7a7eeb6, 4a68d50088, f4b54e1ed9.

A single WAL record is never split across two XLogData messages.
A single WAL record is never split across two WALData messages.
When a WAL record crosses a WAL page boundary, and is therefore
already split using continuation records, it can be split at the page
boundary. In other words, the first main WAL record and its
continuation records can be sent in different XLogData messages.
