 * Additional header information when a full-page image is included

 *
 * The XLOG code is aware that PG data pages usually contain an unused "hole"
 * in the middle, which contains only zero bytes.  Since we know that the
 * "hole" is all zeros, we remove it from the stored data (and it's not counted
 * in the XLOG record's CRC, either).  Hence, the amount of block data actually
 * present is (BLCKSZ - <length of "hole" bytes>).
 *
 * Additionally, when wal_compression is enabled, we will try to compress full
 * page images using the PGLZ compression algorithm, after removing the "hole".
 * This can reduce the WAL volume, but at some extra cost of CPU spent
 * on the compression during WAL logging. In this case, since the "hole"
 * length cannot be calculated by subtracting the number of page image bytes
 * from BLCKSZ, basically it needs to be stored as an extra information.
 * But when no "hole" exists, we can assume that the "hole" length is zero
 * and no such an extra information needs to be stored. Note that
 * the original version of page image is stored in WAL instead of the
 * compressed one if the number of bytes saved by compression is less than
 * the length of extra information. Hence, when a page image is successfully
 * compressed, the amount of block data actually present is less than
 * BLCKSZ - the length of "hole" bytes - the length of extra information.
