It sounds good. We will have two separate commands:
- pgstattuple: returns tuple-level information
- pgstatindex: returns page-level information
We can use tuple-level info to check LP_DELETE flags on index tuples,
and use page-level info to check needs for REINDEX.
Do we add pgstatindex as a new contrib module,
or merge it into contrib/pgstattuple?
