Protect against torn pages when deleting GIN list pages. To-be-deleted list pages contain no useful information, as they are being deleted, but we must still protect the writes from being torn by a crash after a partial write. To do that, re-initialize the pages on WAL replay.
Jeff Janes caught this with a test program to test partial writes. Backpatch to all supported versions.
