Pad semaphores to avoid false sharing.
In a USE_UNNAMED_SEMAPHORES build, the default on Linux and FreeBSD
since commit ecb0d20a
, we have an array of sem_t objects. This
turned out to reduce performance compared to the previous default
USE_SYSV_SEMAPHORES on an 8 socket system. Testing showed that the
lost performance could be regained by padding the array elements so
that they have their own cache lines. This matches what we do for
similar hot arrays (see LWLockPadded, WALInsertLockPadded).
Back-patch to 10, where unnamed semaphores were adopted as the default
semaphore interface on those operating systems.
