Back-patch addition of the ALLOCSET_FOO_SIZES macros.

These macros were originally added in commit ea268cdc9, and back-patched
into 9.6 before 9.6.0.  However, some extensions would like to use them
in older branches, and there seems no harm in providing them.  So add
them to all supported branches.  Per suggestions from Christoph Berg and
Andres Freund.
