Re: Add 64-bit XIDs into PostgreSQL 15

I tried to pg_upgrade from a v13 instance like:
time make check -C src/bin/pg_upgrade oldsrc=`pwd`/13 oldbindir=`pwd`/13/tmp_install/usr/local/pgsql/bin

I had compiled and installed v13 into `pwd`/13.

First, test.sh failed, because of an option in initdb which doesn't exist in
the old version: -x 21000000000

I patched test.sh so the option is used only the "new" version.

The tab_core_types table has an XID column, so pg_upgrade --check complains and
refuses to run. If I drop it, then pg_upgrade runs, but then fails like this:

Also, the patch needs to be rebased over Peter's vacuum changes.

Here's the changes I used for my test:
