Fix explicit valgrind interaction in read_stream.c. By calling wipe_mem() on per-buffer data memory that has been released, we are also telling Valgrind that the memory is "noaccess". We need to set it to "undefined" before giving it to the registered callback to fill in, when a slot is reused.
As discovered by build farm animal skink when the VACUUM streamification patches landed (the first users of per-buffer data). Pushing to master only for now, to clear the error on skink. It's also possible that external code might discover the per-buffer data feature in v17, and reasonable to expect Valgrind not to produce spurious memcheck reports, but the back-patch is deferred until after the imminent minor release is out of the way.
