Preliminary cleanup for hash index code (doesn't attack the locking problem
yet). Fix a couple of bugs that would only appear if multiple bitmap pages are used, including a buffer reference leak and incorrect computation of bit indexes. Get rid of 'overflow address' concept, which accomplished nothing except obfuscating the code and creating a risk of failure due to limited range of offset field. Rename some misleadingly-named fields and routines, and improve documentation.

- * The value in spares[] will change as ovflpages are added within

+ * ovflpages that have been recycled for reuse can be found by looking at
+ * bitmaps that are stored within ovflpages dedicated for the purpose.
+ * The blknos of these bitmap pages are kept in bitmaps[]; nmaps is the
+ * number of currently existing bitmaps.
*
- * Within a splitpoint, one can find which ovflpages are available and
- * which are used by looking at a bitmaps that are stored on the ovfl
- * pages themselves. There is at least one bitmap for every splitpoint's
- * ovflpages. Bitmaps[] contains the ovflpage addresses of the ovflpages
- * that hold the ovflpage bitmaps.
- *
- * The reason that the size is restricted to NCACHED (32) is because
- * the bitmaps are 16 bits: upper 5 represent the splitpoint, lower 11
- * indicate the page number within the splitpoint. Since there are
- * only 5 bits to store the splitpoint, there can only be 32 splitpoints.
- * Both spares[] and bitmaps[] use splitpoints as there indices, so there
- * can only be 32 of them.
+ * The limitation on the size of spares[] comes from the fact that there's
+ * no point in having more than 2^32 buckets with only uint32 hashcodes.
+ * There is no particularly good reason for bitmaps[] to be the same size,
+ * but we're stuck with that until we want to force an initdb. (With 8K
+ * block size, 32 bitmaps limit us to 8 Gb of overflow space...)
