-----------
Reduce the size of memory allocations by lazy vacuum when processing a small
table, by allocating just enough for a hardcoded number of dead tuples per
page.  The current estimate is 200 dead tuples per page.

Per reports from Jeff Amiel, Erik Jones and Marko Kreen, and subsequent
discussion.
