Use pg_memory_is_all_zeros() in PageIsVerifiedExtended()

Relying on pg_memory_is_all_zeros(), which would apply SIMD instructions
when dealing with an aligned page, is proving to be at least three times
faster than the original size_t-based comparisons when checking if a
BLCKSZ page is full of zeros.  Note that PageIsVerifiedExtended() is
called each time a page is read from disk, and making it faster is a
good thing.
