It is tru, but id somebody will use HashMaxItemSize in different place in the
future he could omit to use same approach. See tuptoaster.h how TOAST_MAX_CHUNK
is defined or BTMaxItemSize in nbtree.h.
Pavan's comments is correct. It should give same result as my implementation
(because BLCKSZ is aligned), but it is better readable and consistent with other.
