Add support for basic NUMA awareness
Add basic NUMA awareness routines, using a minimal src/port/pg_numa.c
portability wrapper and an optional build dependency, enabled by
--with-libnuma configure option. For now this is Linux-only, other
platforms may be supported later.
A built-in SQL function pg_numa_available() allows checking NUMA
support, i.e. that the server was built/linked with the NUMA library.
The main function introduced is pg_numa_query_pages(), which allows
determining the NUMA node for individual memory pages. Internally the
function uses move_pages(2) syscall, as it allows batching, and is more
efficient than get_mempolicy(2).
