Fix Assert failure when a fastpath function call is attempted inside an
already-aborted transaction block.  GetSnapshotData throws an Assert if
not in a valid transaction; hence we mustn't attempt to set a snapshot
for the function until after checking for aborted transaction.  This is
harmless AFAICT if Asserts aren't enabled (GetSnapshotData will compute
a bogus snapshot, but it doesn't matter since HandleFunctionRequest will
throw an error shortly anywy).  Hence, not a major bug.

Along the way, add some ability to log fastpath calls when statement
logging is turned on.  This could probably stand to be improved further,
but not logging anything is clearly undesirable.

Make the planner estimate costs for nestloop inner indexscans on the basis
that the Mackert-Lohmann formula applies across all the repetitions of the
nestloop, not just each scan independently.  We use the M-L formula to
estimate the number of pages fetched from the index as well as from the table;
that isn't what it was designed for, but it seems reasonably applicable
anyway.  This makes large numbers of repetitions look much cheaper than
before, which accords with many reports we've received of overestimation
of the cost of a nestloop.  Also, change the index access cost model to
charge random_page_cost per index leaf page touched, while explicitly
not counting anything for access to metapage or upper tree pages.  This
may all need tweaking after we get some field experience, but in simple
tests it seems to be giving saner results than before.  The main thing
is to get the infrastructure in place to let cost_index() and amcostestimate
functions take repeated scans into account at all.  Per my recent proposal.

Note: this patch changes pg_proc.h, but I did not force initdb because

pg_proc to decide how to call an index amcostestimate function, and

While making the seq_page_cost changes, I was struck by the fact that
cost_nonsequential_access() is really totally inappropriate for its only
remaining use, namely estimating I/O costs in cost_sort().  The routine
was designed on the assumption that disk caching might eliminate the need
for some re-reads on a random basis, but there's nothing very random in
that sense about sort's access pattern --- it'll always be picking up the
oldest outputs.  If we had a good fix on the effective cache size we
might consider charging zero for I/O unless the sort temp file size
exceeds it, but that's probably putting much too much faith in the
parameter.  Instead just drop the logic in favor of a fixed compromise
between seq_page_cost and random_page_cost per page of sort I/O.
