Peter Geoghegan 67b0b2dbf9 Reconsider nbtree page deletion assertion.
Commit 624686abcf added an assertion that verified that _bt_search
successfully relocated the leaf page undergoing deletion.  Page deletion
cannot deal with the case where the descent stack is to the right of the
page, so this seemed critical (deletion can only handle the case where
the descent stack is to the left of the leaf/target page).  However, the
assertion went a bit too far.

Since only a buffer pin is held on the leaf page throughout the call to
_bt_search, nothing guarantees that it can't have split during this
small window.  And if does actually split, _bt_search may end up
"relocating" a page to the right of the original target leaf page.  This
scenario seems extremely unlikely, but it must still be considered.
Remove the assertion, and document how we cope in this scenario.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
