  5. Teach contrib/amcheck to check the unique constraint violation

  6. Add macros in hash and btree AMs to get the special area of their pages

Hi,

I also would like to suggest a cosmetic change.
In v15 a new field checkunique is added after heapallindexed and before
no_btree_expansion fields in struct definition, but in initialisation it is
added after no_btree_expansion:

 };

I suggest to add checkunique field between heapallindexed and
no_btree_expansion fields in initialisation as well as in definition:
