Fix possible recovery trouble if TRUNCATE overlaps a checkpoint.
If TRUNCATE causes some buffers to be invalidated and thus the checkpoint does not flush them, TRUNCATE must also ensure that the corresponding files are truncated on disk. Otherwise, a replay from the checkpoint might find that the buffers exist but have the wrong contents, which may cause replay to fail. Report by Teja Mupparti. Patch by Kyotaro Horiguchi, per a design suggestion from Heikki Linnakangas, with some changes to the comments by me. Review of this and a prior patch that approached the issue differently by Heikki Linnakangas, Andres Freund, Álvaro Herrera, Masahiko Sawada, and Tom Lane.
