Defer flushing of SLRU files.

Browse Source 
Previously, we called fsync() after writing out individual pg_xact,
pg_multixact and pg_commit_ts pages due to cache pressure, leading to
regular I/O stalls in user backends and recovery.  Collapse requests for
the same file into a single system call as part of the next checkpoint,
as we already did for relation files, using the infrastructure developed
by commit 3eb77eba.  This can cause a significant improvement to
recovery performance, especially when it's otherwise CPU-bound.

Hoist ProcessSyncRequests() up into CheckPointGuts() to make it clearer
that it applies to all the SLRU mini-buffer-pools as well as the main
buffer pool.  Rearrange things so that data collected in CheckpointStats
includes SLRU activity.

Also remove the Shutdown{CLOG,CommitTS,SUBTRANS,MultiXact}() functions,
because they were redundant after the shutdown checkpoint that
immediately precedes them.  (I'm not sure if they were ever needed, but
they aren't now.)
