Allow users to opt out of returning FPI data and block data from pg_get_wal_block_info as an optimization. Testing has shown that this can make function execution over twice as fast in some cases. When pg_get_wal_block_info is called with "show_data := false", it always returns NULL values for its block_data and block_fpi_data bytea output parameters. Nothing else changes. In particular, the function will still return the usual per-block summary of block data/FPI space overhead. Use of "show_data := false" is therefore feasible with all queries that don't specifically require these raw binary strings. Follow-up to recent work in commit 122376f0. There still hasn't been a stable release with the pg_get_wal_block_info function, so no bump in the pg_walinspect extension version. Per suggestion from Melanie Plageman.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions.
