Change JSONB's on-disk format for improved performance.

The original design used an array of offsets into the variable-length
portion of a JSONB container.  However, such an array is basically
uncompressible by simple compression techniques such as TOAST's LZ
compressor.  That's bad enough, but because the offset array is at the
front, it tended to trigger the give-up-after-1KB heuristic in the TOAST
code, so that the entire JSONB object was stored uncompressed; which was
the root cause of bug #11109 from Larry White.

To fix without losing the ability to extract a random array element in O(1)
time, change this scheme so that most of the JEntry array elements hold
lengths rather than offsets.  With data that's compressible at all, there
tend to be fewer distinct element lengths, so that there is scope for
compression of the JEntry array.  Every N'th entry is still an offset.
To determine the length or offset of any specific element, we might have
to examine up to N preceding JEntrys, but that's still O(1) so far as the
total container size is concerned.  Testing shows that this cost is
negligible compared to other costs of accessing a JSONB field, and that
the method does largely fix the incompressible-data problem.

While at it, rearrange the order of elements in a JSONB object so that
it's "all the keys, then all the values" not alternating keys and values.
This doesn't really make much difference right at the moment, but it will
allow providing a fast path for extracting individual object fields from
large JSONB values stored EXTERNAL (ie, uncompressed), analogously to the
existing optimization for substring extraction from large EXTERNAL text
values.

Bump catversion to denote the incompatibility in on-disk format.
We will need to fix pg_upgrade to disallow upgrading jsonb data stored
with 9.4 betas 1 and 2.

* To encode the length and offset of the variable-length portion of each

* boundary, while others are not. When alignment is needed, the padding is

* The least significant 28 bits store the end offset of the entry (see
* JBE_ENDPOS, JBE_OFF, JBE_LEN macros below). The next three bits
* are used to store the type of the entry. The most significant bit
* is unused, and should be set to zero.
* The least significant 28 bits store either the data length of the entry,
* or its end+1 offset from the start of the variable-length portion of the
* containing object. The next three bits store the type of the entry, and
* the high-order bit tells whether the least significant bits store a length
* or an offset.
*
* The reason for the offset-or-length complication is to compromise between
* access speed and data compressibility. In the initial design each JEntry
* always stored an offset, but this resulted in JEntry arrays with horrible
* compressibility properties, so that TOAST compression of a JSONB did not
* work well. Storing only lengths would greatly improve compressibility,
* but it makes random access into large arrays expensive (O(N) not O(1)).
* So what we do is store an offset in every JB_OFFSET_STRIDE'th JEntry and
* a length in the rest. This results in reasonably compressible data (as
* long as the stride isn't too small). We may have to examine as many as
* JB_OFFSET_STRIDE JEntrys in order to find out the offset or length of any
* given item, but that's still O(1) no matter how large the container is.
*
* We could avoid eating a flag bit for this purpose if we were to store
* the stride in the container header, or if we were willing to treat the
* stride as an unchangeable constant. Neither of those options is very
* attractive though.
