Subject: [PATCH] pg_waldump: Handle archive exhaustion in
 init_archive_reader().

When read_archive_file() returns 0, the archive may have already
buffered a complete WAL file into the hash table before exhausting
the input.  Instead of immediately reporting an error, search the
hash table for an entry containing at least sizeof(XLogLongPageHeader)
bytes.  Report a specific error if a WAL entry exists but is too
short (truncated/corrupt), or a generic error if no WAL was found
at all.

Also tighten the loop condition to check for sizeof(XLogLongPageHeader)
rather than XLOG_BLCKSZ, since only the long page header is needed
at this stage.
