Add support for runtime arguments in injection points

The macros INJECTION_POINT() and INJECTION_POINT_CACHED() are extended
with an optional argument that can be passed down to the callback
attached when an injection point is run, giving to callbacks the
possibility to manipulate a stack state given by the caller.  The
existing callbacks in modules injection_points and test_aio have their
declarations adjusted based on that.

da7226993fd4 (core AIO infrastructure) and 93bc3d75d8e1 (test_aio) and
been relying on a set of workarounds where a static variable called
pgaio_inj_cur_handle is used as runtime argument in the injection point
callbacks used by the AIO tests, in combination with a TRY/CATCH block
to reset the argument value.  The infrastructure introduced in this
commit will be reused for the AIO tests, simplifying them.
