Looks pretty sane to me.  The only thing that seems worth discussing is
whether to put the smgr-related XLOG record declarations in storage.h
as you have here, or to invent a new, more private header for them.

There are XLOG record declarations cluttering a lot of other fairly
public headers; but given that we've invented files like heapam_xlog.h
of late, maybe we should start trying to push those declarations to
less-visible spots.  Or maybe it's not worth the trouble.
