RelationTruncate() must set DELAY_CHKPT_START.
Previously, it set only DELAY_CHKPT_COMPLETE. That was important, because it meant that if the XLOG_SMGR_TRUNCATE record preceded a XLOG_CHECKPOINT_ONLINE record in the WAL, then the truncation would also happen on disk before the XLOG_CHECKPOINT_ONLINE record was written. However, it didn't guarantee that the sync request for the truncation was processed before the XLOG_CHECKPOINT_ONLINE record was written. By setting DELAY_CHKPT_START, we guarantee that if an XLOG_SMGR_TRUNCATE record is written to WAL before the redo pointer of a concurrent checkpoint, the sync request queued by that operation must be processed by that checkpoint, rather than being left for the following one. This is a refinement of commit 412ad7a5563. Back-patch to all supported releases, like that commit.
