Tomas Vondra 14ffaece0f amcheck: Add gin_index_check() to verify GIN index
Adds a new function, validating two kinds of invariants on a GIN index:

- parent-child consistency: Paths in a GIN graph have to contain
  consistent keys. Tuples on parent pages consistently include tuples
  from child pages; parent tuples do not require any adjustments.

- balanced-tree / graph: Each internal page has at least one downlink,
  and can reference either only leaf pages or only internal pages.

The GIN verification is based on work by Grigory Kryachko, reworked by
Heikki Linnakangas and with various improvements by Andrey Borodin.
Investigation and fixes for multiple bugs by Kirill Reshke.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------

This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree.  This does not preclude their
usefulness.

User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.

When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target.  You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.

Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types.  To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command.  In a fresh database,
you can simply do

    CREATE EXTENSION module_name;

See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
