Subject: [PATCH] Fix initdb's logic for picking shared_buffers/max_fsm_pages,
 which had gotten rather thoroughly whacked out by careless recent changes:
 the intended ratio between the two was off by a lot, and the minimum number
 of shared buffers tried had increased by a lot.  Problem exposed by failures
 on buildfarm members with smaller SHMMAX values.
