pgsql: Refactor checksumming code to make it easier to use externally.

Refactor checksumming code to make it easier to use externally.

pg_filedump and other external utility programs are likely to want to be
able to check Postgres page checksums. To avoid messy duplication of code,
move the checksumming functionality into an exported header file, much as
we did awhile back for the CRC code.

In passing, get rid of an unportable assumption that a static char[] array
will be word-aligned, and do some other minor code beautification.
