Don't use Perl pack('Q') in 039_end_of_wal.pl.

macdice · macdice · commit 82314dbfca7f · 2023-09-23T14:15:52.000+12:00
'Q' for 64 bit integers turns out not to work on 32 bit Perl, as revealed by the build farm. Use 'II' instead, and deal with endianness. Back-patch to 12, like bae868c. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/ZQ4r1vHcryBsSi_V%40paquier.xyz
