Done that as of 225ebfe30a1a, with some additions:
- A check on pg_column_compression(), to make sure that the short
varlena path leads to an uncompressed on-disk Datum.
- Some substr() for the values, to cross-check slice reads.
- A query based on the TOAST relation's chunk_seq, making sure that we
have taken toast_save_datum() two times when inserting a tuple with
the two toastable attributes.
The buildfarm is OK with it, as is the latest patch for the 8-byte
TOAST values posted here:
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/aIyCz4T858Kcm4UU@paquier.xyz
The patch posted there needs a rebase, following the changes in
varatt.h done in e035863c9a04. Will post a rebase very soon.
