Rename pg_complete_relation_size() to pg_total_relation_size(), for the
sake of brevity and clarity.

Make pg_reload_conf(), pg_rotate_logfile(), and pg_cancel_backend()
return a boolean rather than an integer to indicate success or failure.

Along the way, make some minor cleanups to dbsize.c -- in particular,
use elog() rather than ereport() for "shouldn't happen" error
conditions, and remove some of the more flagrant violations of the
Postgres indentation conventions.

Catalog version bumped.

Force the size and alignment of LWLock array entries to be either 16 or 32
