This commit adds the possibility to define TOAST tables with oid8 as their chunk_id, based on the reloption toast_value_type. All the external TOAST pointers still rely on varatt_external_oid and a single vartag. The values inserted in the oid8 TOAST tables are fed from the OID8 value generator, casted to OID for now, as we do not have a vartag_external able to store Oid8 values yet. An upcoming commit will add support for a new vartag_external and its associated structures, with the code being able to use a different on-disk external TOAST pointer depending on the attribute type of chunk_id defined in TOAST relations. All the changes done here are mechanical, mostly around the TOAST code that needs to be able to do chunk_id lookups based on the two types now supported. Bump catalog version.
