Before this commit _mdfd_getseg(), in contrast to mdnblocks(), did not verify whether all segments leading up to the to-be-opened one, were RELSEG_SIZE sized. That is e.g. not the case after truncating a relation, because later segments just get truncated to zero length, not removed. Once a "non-existent" segment has been opened in a session, mdnblocks() will return wrong results, causing errors like "could not read block %u in file" when accessing blocks. Closing the session, or the later arrival of relevant invalidation messages, would "fix" the problem. That, so far, was mostly harmless, because most segment accesses are only done after an mdnblocks() call. But since 428b1d6b we try to open segments that might have been deleted, to trigger kernel writeback from a backend's queue of recent writes. To fix check segment sizes in _mdfd_getseg() when opening previously unopened segments. In practice this shouldn't imply a lot of additional lseek() calls, because mdnblocks() will most of the time already have opened all relevant segments. This commit also fixes a second problem, namely that _mdfd_getseg( EXTENSION_RETURN_NULL) extends files during recovery, which is not desirable for the mdwriteback() case. Add EXTENSION_REALLY_RETURN_NULL, which does not behave that way, and use it.
