The mention of "XID" corresponds to XID on the left, like a sort of
variable. That text is not changed by this patch.

Hmm, yeah that is inconsistent, but it seems like it is pg_resetwal.c
that is not following the notational convention there. Other things
in pg_resetwal's --help use that 'variable' style.

This was discussed earlier: it's OK for the dbNode to be invalid (0),
because that's how shared relations like pg_database are referenced.
Like this:
$ pg_waldump pgdata/pg_wal/000000010000000000000001 --relation
1664/0/1262 --fork vm --limit 1
rmgr: Heap2 len (rec/tot): 64/ 8256, tx: 0, lsn:
0/01491F20, prev 0/01491EC0, desc: VISIBLE cutoff xid 1 flags 0x03,
blkref #0: rel 1664/0/1262 fork vm blk 0 FPW, blkref #1: rel
1664/0/1262 blk 0
Thanks for looking! I've now pushed the improvements discussed so far.
