ginRedoInsert(), because other ginRedo* functions rewrite whole page or
make changes which could be applied several times without consistent's loss
- Remove check of identifying of corresponding split record:
it's possible that replaying of WAL starts after actual page split, but before
removing of that split from incomplete splits list. In this case, that check
cause FATAL error.
Per stress test which reproduces bug reported by Craig McElroy

- Fix possible deadlock between UPDATE and VACUUM queries. Bug never was
observed in 8.2, but it still exist there. HEAD is more sensitive to
bug after recent "ring" of buffer improvements.
- Fix WAL creation: if parent page is stored as is after split then
incomplete split isn't removed during replay. This happens rather rare, only
on large tables with a lot of updates/inserts.
- Fix WAL replay: there was wrong test of XLR_BKP_BLOCK_* for left
page after deletion of page. That causes wrong rightlink field: it pointed
to deleted page.
- add checking of match of clearing incomplete split
- cleanup incomplete split list after proceeding
All of this chages doesn't change on-disk storage, so backpatch...
But second point may be an issue for replaying logs from previous version.
operation every so often. This improves the usefulness of PITR log
shipping for hot standby: formerly, if the standby server crashed, it
was necessary to restart it from the last base backup and replay all
the WAL since then. Now it will only need to reread about the same
amount of WAL as the master server would. The behavior might also
come in handy during a long PITR replay sequence. Simon Riggs,
with some editorialization by Tom Lane.
