Optimize pg_checksums --enable where checksum is already set

Browse Source 
This commit prevents pg_checksums to do a rewrite of a block if it has
no need to, in the case where the computed checksum matches with what's
already stored in the block read.  This is helpful to accelerate
successive runs of the tool when the previous ones got interrupted, for
example.

The number of blocks and files written is tracked and reported by the
tool once finished.  Note that the final flush of the data folder
happens even if no blocks are written, as it could be possible that a
previous interrupted run got stopped while doing a flush.
