Simplify autovacuum work-item implementation
The initial implementation of autovacuum work-items used a dynamic
shared memory area (DSA). However, it's argued that dynamic shared
memory is not portable enough, so we cannot rely on it being supported
everywhere; at the same time, autovacuum work-items are now a critical
part of the server, so it's not acceptable that they don't work in the
cases where dynamic shared memory is disabled. Therefore, let's fall
back to a simpler implementation of work-items that just uses
autovacuum's main shared memory segment for storage.
