Revert "Allow on-line enabling and disabling of data checksums"
This reverts the backend sides of commit 1fde38beaa0c3e66c340efc7cc0dc272d6254bb0. I have, at least for now, left the pg_verify_checksums tool in place, as this tool can be very valuable without the rest of the patch as well, and since it's a read-only tool that only runs when the cluster is down it should be a lot safer.
