Force pg_database updates out to disk immediately after ALTER DATABASE;

this is to avoid scenarios where incoming backends find no live copies
of a database's row because the only live copy is in an as-yet-unwritten
shared buffer, which they can't see.  Also, use FlushRelationBuffers()
for forcing out pg_database, instead of the much more expensive BufferSync().
There's no need to write out pages belonging to other relations.
