No, apply doesn't mean has_image is set. If has_image is not set,
apply/bimg_info
is invalid(/undefined) and we should not use that. For example, in
XLogDumpDisplayRecord we use
bimg_info as following,
if (XLogRecHasBlockImage(record, block_id))
{
if (record->blocks[block_id].bimg_info & BKPIMAGE_IS_COMPRESSED)
{
}
}
So, whenever we are required to use bimg_info flag, we should make
sure that has_image
is set.
