WAL-log the creation of the init fork of unlogged indexes.

We create a file, so we better WAL-log it. In practice, all the
built-in index AMs and all extensions that I'm aware of write a
metapage to the init fork, which is WAL-logged, and replay of the
metapage implicitly creates the fork too. But if ambuildempty() didn't
write any page, we would miss it.

This can be seen with dummy_index_am. Set up replication, create a
'dummy_index_am' index on an unlogged table, and look at the files
created in the replica: the init fork is not created on the
replica. Dummy_index_am doesn't do anything with the relation files,
however, so it doesn't lead to any user-visible errors.

Backpatch to all supported versions.
