pgsql: Fix potential stack overflow in incremental backup.

Fix potential stack overflow in incremental backup.

The user can set RELSEG_SIZE to a high number at compile time, so we
can't use it to control the size of an array on the stack: it could be
many gigabytes in size.  On closer inspection, we don't really need that
intermediate array anyway.  Let's just write directly into the output
array, and then perform the absolute->relative adjustment in place.
This fixes new code from commit dc212340058.

+ * file just as if this were not an incremental backup.  The contents of the
+ * relative_block_numbers array is unspecified in this case.

Perhaps you mean s/is/are/ here?  The contents are what's not
specified.

Thanks, fixed.  Duh.
