We could do that ... but I wonder if we shouldn't remove assert_enabled
altogether.  What's the use case for turning it off?  Not matching the
speed of a non-cassert build, because for instance MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING
doesn't get turned off.

If we went this direction I'd suggest keeping the GUC but turning it into
a read-only report of whether the backend was compiled with assertions.
