Review shadow_v6 patch

Hello

I did a recheck a newest version of this patch:

1. There is a wide agreement on implemented feature - nothing changed from
previous review - it is not necessary comment it again.

2. v6 patch: patching cleanly, compilation without errors and warnings, all
regress tests passed

Tom's objections was related to GUC part. It is redesigned as Tom proposed.

The code is good - and I don't see any problem there.

I have only one objection - What I remember - more usual is using a list
instead a bitmap for these purposes - typical is DefElem struct. Isn't it
better?

Regards

Pavel
