Why? The record has not been inserted yet. I would tend to keep only
the check at the bottom of XLogRecordAssemble(), for simplicity, and
call it a day.

I am not really convinced that this one is worth doing.
+#define MaxXLogRecordSize (1020 * 1024 * 1024)
+
+#define XLogRecordLengthIsValid(len) ((len) >= 0 && (len) < MaxXLogRecordSize)
These are used only in xloginsert.c, so we could keep them isolated.

For now, I have extracted from the patch the two API changes and the
checks for the block information for uint16, and applied this part.
That's one less thing to worry about.
