 * Additional header information when a full-page image is included
 * (i.e. when BKPBLOCK_HAS_IMAGE is set).
 *
 * As a trivial form of data compression, the XLOG code is aware that
 * PG data pages usually contain an unused "hole" in the middle, which
 * contains only zero bytes.  If the length of "hole" > 0 then we have removed
 * such a "hole" from the stored data (and it's not counted in the
 * XLOG record's CRC, either).  Hence, the amount of block data actually
 * present is BLCKSZ - the length of "hole" bytes.
 *
 * When wal_compression is enabled, a full page image which "hole" was
 * removed is additionally compressed using PGLZ compression algorithm.
 * This can reduce the WAL volume, but at some extra cost of CPU spent
 * on the compression during WAL logging. In this case, since the "hole"
 * length cannot be calculated by subtracting the number of page image bytes
 * from BLCKSZ, basically it needs to be stored as an extra information.
 * But when no "hole" exists, we can assume that the "hole" length is zero
 * and no such an extra information needs to be stored. Note that
 * the original version of page image is stored in WAL instead of the
 * compressed one if the number of bytes saved by compression is less than
 * the length of extra information. Hence, when a page image is successfully
 * compressed, the amount of block data actually present is less than
 * BLCKSZ - the length of "hole" bytes - the length of extra information.
