Don't use bgw_main even to specify in-core bgworker entrypoints.
On EXEC_BACKEND builds, this can fail if ASLR is in use.
Backpatch to 9.5. On master, completely remove the bgw_main field
completely, since there is no situation in which it is safe for an
EXEC_BACKEND build. On 9.6 and 9.5, leave the field intact to avoid
breaking things for third-party code that doesn't care about working
under EXEC_BACKEND. Prior to 9.5, there are no in-core bgworker
entrypoints.
