Avoid valgrind complaint about write() of uninitalized bytes.
LogicalTapeFreeze() may write out its first block when it is dirty but
not full, and then immediately read the first block back in from its
BufFile as a BLCKSZ-width block. This can only occur in rare cases
where very few tuples were written out, which is currently only
possible with parallel external tuplesorts. To avoid valgrind
complaints, tell it to treat the tail of logtape.c's buffer as
defined.
Commit 9da0cc3 exposed this problem
but did not create it. LogicalTapeFreeze() has always tended to write
out some amount of garbage bytes, but previously never wrote less than
one block of data in total, so the problem was masked.
