Oh, but allow_in_place_tablespaces doesn't exist in versions 14 and
older, so this strategy doesn't really work.

I see the following alternatives:

1. not backpatch this fix to 14 and older
2. use a different GUC; either allow_invalid_pages as previously
   suggested, or create a new one just for this purpose
3. not provide any overriding mechanism in versions 14 and older
