Peter Geoghegan 28c16f4947 Remove unnecessary PageIsEmpty() nbtree build check.
nbtree index builds cannot write out an empty page.  That would mean
that there was no way to create a pivot tuple pointing to the page one
level up, since _bt_truncate() generates one based on page's firstright
tuple.

Replace the unnecessary PageIsEmpty() check with an assertion that
checks that the page has space for at least two line pointers (the
would-be high key line pointer, plus at least one valid "data item"
tuple line pointer).

The PageIsEmpty() check was added by commit 5d9f146c over 20 years ago.
It looks like it has always been unnecessary.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
