Fixed a typo: "iff" -> "if" that I found while reviewing the other patch.
iff is shorthand for "if and only if", so it is correct here. That being said,
it's also the cause of many typofix suggstions so it's clearly not widely known
anymore and we try to avoid it new code/comments. Maybe a case could be made
for changing all the iff's in the code to aid readability, but it would have to
be measured against the induced churn.

Oh… I was misled by [1]. I should have done a Google search for that by myself.
I just did a search and found 219 occurrences:
```
chaol@ChaodeMacBook-Air postgresql % grep -Rho --include='*.c' --include='*.h' ' iff' . | wc -l
219
```
Do you think it is worth replacing all in a batch?
