Allow "in place" tablespaces.

Provide a developer-only GUC allow_in_place_tablespaces, disabled by
default.  When enabled, tablespaces can be created with an empty
LOCATION string, meaning that they should be created as a directory
directly beneath pg_tblspc.  This can be used for new testing scenarios,
in a follow-up patch.  Not intended for end-user usage, since it might
confuse backup tools that expect symlinks.
