Fix WAL replay of truncate operations to cope with the possibility that the
truncated relation was deleted later in the WAL sequence. Since replay normally auto-creates a relation upon its first reference by a WAL log entry, failure is seen only if the truncate entry happens to be the first reference after the checkpoint we're restarting from; which is a pretty unusual case but of course not impossible. Fix by making truncate entries auto-create like the other ones do. Per report and test case from Dharmendra Goyal.
