I have discovered and fixed the issue in a44dd932ff. spg_mask()
masked unused space only when pagehdr->pd_lower >
SizeOfPageHeaderData. But during the vacuum regression tests, one
page has been erased completely and pagehdr->pd_lower was set to
SizeOfPageHeaderData. Actually, 13 didn't introduce any issue, it
just added a test that spotted the issue. The issue is here since
a507b86900.
