Log Message:
-----------
Remove unnecessary calls of FlushRelationBuffers: there is no need
to write out data that we are about to tell the filesystem to drop.
smgr_internal_unlink already had a DropRelFileNodeBuffers call to
get rid of dead buffers without a write after it's no longer possible
to roll back the deleting transaction. Adding a similar call in
smgrtruncate simplifies callers and makes the overall division of
labor clearer. This patch removes the former behavior that VACUUM
would write all dirty buffers of a relation unconditionally.
