Andres Freund 755a4c10d1 bufmgr/smgr: Don't cross segment boundaries in StartReadBuffers()
With real AIO it doesn't make sense to cross segment boundaries with one
IO. Add smgrmaxcombine() to allow upper layers to query which buffers can be
merged.

We could continue to cross segment boundaries when not using AIO, but it
doesn't really make sense, because md.c will never be able to perform the read
across the segment boundary in one system call. Which means we'll mark more
buffers as undergoing IO than really makes sense - if another backend desires
to read the same blocks, it'll be blocked longer than necessary. So it seems
better to just never cross the boundary.
