Log Message:
-----------
In the checkpoint written at the end of archive recovery, the WAL page header
was incorrectly initialized with timeline ID 0. That rendered the WAL page
unrecoverable, making a subsequent archive recovery stop at that point.
ThisTimeLineID needs to be initialized before calling AdvanceXLInsertBuffer().

This fixes bug #5011 reported by James Bardin. Backpatch to 8.4, as the bug
was introduced by the changes to use of bgwriter for writing the
end-of-archive-recovery checkpoint. Patch by Tom Lane.
