Flag index metapages as standard-format in xlog.c calls.

btree, hash, and bloom indexes all set up their metapages in standard
format (that is, with pd_lower and pd_upper correctly delimiting the
unused area); but they mostly didn't inform the xlog routines of this.
When calling log_newpage[_buffer], this is bad because it loses the
opportunity to compress unused data out of the WAL record.  When
calling XLogRegisterBuffer, it's not such a performance problem because
all of these call sites also use REGBUF_WILL_INIT, preventing an FPI
image from being written.  But it's still a good idea to provide the
flag when relevant, because that aids WAL consistency checking.

This completes the project of getting all the in-core index AMs to
handle their metapage WAL operations similarly.
