Switch Get[Local]BufferDescriptor() to use a signed value in input
GetBufferDescriptor() and GetLocalBufferDescriptor() took a uint32
buffer index, but every real caller derives the index from a Buffer:
- Unsigned value for shared buffers.
- Signed value for local buffers.
Both routines now take in input a signed number, GetBufferDescriptor()
gaining an assertion checking that the input value is in the range
allowed by the GUC shared_buffers. This work is a follow-up of
e18b0cb7344c, where we found that passing down a value for a local
buffer was undetected and finished outside the range of NBuffers.
While monitoring all the existing callers of *BufferDescriptor(), the
only consumer that passes does an unsigned value is ClockSweepTick(),
whose result is always a module of NBuffers.
