Robert Haas c11453ce0a hash: Add write-ahead logging support. The warning about hash indexes not being write-ahead logged and their use being discouraged has been removed. "snapshot too old" is now supported for tables with hash indexes. Most importantly, barring bugs, hash indexes will now be crash-safe and usable on standbys. This commit doesn't yet add WAL consistency checking for hash indexes, as we now have for other index types; a separate patch has been submitted to cure that lack. Amit Kapila, reviewed and slightly modified by me. The larger patch series of which this is a part has been reviewed and tested by Álvaro Herrera, Ashutosh Sharma, Mark Kirkwood, Jeff Janes, and Jesper Pedersen.

Robert Haas c11453ce0a hash: Add write-ahead logging support.

The warning about hash indexes not being write-ahead logged and their
use being discouraged has been removed.  "snapshot too old" is now
supported for tables with hash indexes.  Most importantly, barring
bugs, hash indexes will now be crash-safe and usable on standbys.

This commit doesn't yet add WAL consistency checking for hash
indexes, as we now have for other index types; a separate patch has
been submitted to cure that lack.

Pedersen.
