[PATCH] Add some useful asserts into View Options macroses

This thread is a follow up to the thread https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/2620882.s52SJui4ql@x200m where I've been
tryingto remove StdRdOptions 
 
structure and replace it with unique structure for each relation kind.

I've decided to split that patch into smaller parts.

This part adds some asserts to ViewOptions macroses.
Since an option pointer there is converted into (ViewOptions *) it would be 
really good to make sure that this macros is called in proper context, and we 
do the convertation properly. At least when running tests with asserts turned 
on.

Seems like a good idea.  Should we try to do something similar for the
macros in that header file that cast to StdRdOptions?

That would not be as easy as for ViewOptions. For example as for the current
master code, fillfactor from StdRdOptions is used in Toast, Heap, Hash index,
nbtree index, and spgist index. This will make RelationGetFillFactor macros a
bit complicated for example.

Now I have patches that limits usage of StdRdOptions to Heap and Toast.

When StdRdOptions is not that widely used, we whould be able to add asserts
for it, it will not make the code too complex.

So I would suggest to do ViewOptions asserts now, and keep dealing with
StdRdOptions for later. When we are finished with my current patches, I will
take care about it.

Committed.

I simplified the parentheses by one level from your patch.
