Adjust assertion in XLogDecodeNextRecord.
As written, if you use XLogBeginRead() to position an xlogreader at
the beginning of a WAL page and then try to read WAL, this assertion
will fail. However, the header comment for XLogBeginRead() claims
that positioning an xlogreader at the beginning of a page is valid,
and the code here is perfectly able to cope with it. It's only the
assertion that causes trouble. So relax it.
This is formally a bug in all supported branches, but as it doesn't
seem to have any consequences for current uses of the xlogreader
facility, no back-patch, at least for now.
Dilip Kumar and Robert Haas
