Thanks.  Pushed, and back-patched to 14, where
min_dynamic_shared_memory arrived.

I wondered in passing if the stuff about relptr_declare() was still
needed to avoid confusing pgindent, since we tweaked the indent code a
bit for macros that take a typename, but it seems that it still
mangles "relptr(FooBar) some_struct_member;", putting extra whitespace
in front of it.  Hmmph.
