Andres Freund bb42bfb5cc Assert redirect pointers are sensible after heap_page_prune(). 
Corruption of redirect item pointers often only becomes visible well after
being corrupted, as e.g. bug #17255 shows: In the original reproducer,
gigabyte of WAL were between the source of the corruption and the corruption
becoming visible.

To make it easier to find / prevent such bugs, verify whether redirect
pointers are sensible at the end of heap_page_prune_execute(). 5cd7eb1f1c
introduced related assertions while modifying the page, but they can't easily
detect marking the target of an existing redirect as unused. Sometimes the
corruption will be detected later, but that's harder to diagnose.

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/.
