    Relax the requirement that all lwlocks be stored in a single array. · ea9df812
    Robert Haas authored
    This makes it possible to store lwlocks as part of some other data
    structure in the main shared memory segment, or in a dynamic shared
    memory segment.  There is still a main LWLock array and this patch does
    not move anything out of it, but it provides necessary infrastructure
    for doing that in the future.
    
    This change is likely to increase the size of LWLockPadded on some
    platforms, especially 32-bit platforms where it was previously only
    16 bytes.
    
    Patch by me.  Review by Andres Freund and KaiGai Kohei.
