Fix leak with SMgrRelations in startup process
The startup process does not process shared invalidation messages, only
sending them, and never calls AtEOXact_SMgr() which clean up any
unpinned SMgrRelations. Hence, it is never able to free SMgrRelations
on a periodic basis, bloating its hashtable over time.
Like the checkpointer and the bgwriter, this commit takes a conservative
approach by freeing periodically SMgrRelations when replaying a
checkpoint record, either online or shutdown, so as the startup process
has a way to perform a periodic cleanup.
Issue caused by 21d9c3ee4ef7, so backpatch down to v17.
