Add relation fork support to pg_relation_size() function. You can now pass
name of a fork ('main' or 'fsm', at the moment) to pg_relation_size() to
get the size of a specific fork. Defaults to 'main', if none given.

While we're at it, modify pg_relation_size to take a regclass as argument,
instead of separate variants taking oid and name. This change is
transparent to typical use where the table name is passed as a string
literal, like pg_relation_size('table'), but will break queries like
pg_relation_size(namecol), where namecol is of type name. text-type input
still works, and using a non-schema-qualified table name is not very
reliable anyway, so this is unlikely to break anyone's queries in practice.
