The new "default_only" field can be initialized only from the internal codes
and is not exported to user definded reloptions. We could add an additional
argument to add_xxx_reloption() functions, but it breaks ABI.

How about the attached patch? It just fills fillfactor (and analyze_threshold)
to default values for TOAST relations. I think responsibility for filling
reloptions with proper values is not in the generic option routines but in
AM-specific reloption handlers.
