Prevent walsummarizer from getting stuck at a timeline switch. As previously coded, walsummarizer only wants to read WAL from a file where the TimeLineID in the filename exactly matches the TimeLineID being summarized. But in some cases, when a timeline switch occurs, the WAL file from the old timeline is not archived, because it's never completely filled, so the only way to obtain the contents of that last partial segment is to read from the first segment on the new timeline. Teach WAL summarizer to do that, and add a test case to make sure that it works.
