Fix double-XLogBeginInsert call in GIN page splits.

Fix double-XLogBeginInsert call in GIN page splits.

If data checksums or wal_log_hints is on, and a GIN page is split, the code
to find a new, empty, block was called after having already called
XLogBeginInsert(). That causes an assertion failure or PANIC, if finding the
new block involves updating a FSM page that had not been modified since last
checkpoint, because that update is WAL-logged, which calls XLogBeginInsert
again. Nested XLogBeginInsert calls are not supported.

To fix, rearrange GIN code so that XLogBeginInsert is called later, after
finding the victim buffers.
