Should we log a warning at startup when effective_cache_size is less

I would say no. Although I could see an argument for the default
effective_cache_size always being the same size as shared_buffers.
That's certainly not what we've meant historically by ECS. Generally
it's been the size of shared_buffers *and* the FS cache. If it were
just the size of shared_buffers, then we wouldn't need a 2nd setting,
would we?
