Some background activity (like checkpoints, archive timeout, standby snapshots) is not supposed to happen on an idle system. Unfortunately so far it was not easy to determine when a system is idle, which defeated some of the attempts to avoid redundant activity on an idle system. To make that easier, allow to make individual WAL insertions as not being "important". By checking whether any important activity happened since the last time an activity was performed, it now is easy to check whether some action needs to be repeated. Use the new facility for checkpoints, archive timeout and standby snapshots. The lack of a facility causes some issues in older releases, but in my opinion the consequences (superflous checkpoints / archived segments) aren't grave enough to warrant backpatching.
