In smgr.c, we have:
"could not read block %u in file \"%s\": %m"
That seems to be the closet thing we have to a generic message
template right now, but it's not entirely generic because it talks
about blocks. Maybe we should go with something like:
"could not read %u bytes in file \"%s\" at offset %u: %m"
...and use that for both WAL and smgr.
