I agree that pg_freespacemap sounds like an odd location.

With the advent of src/test/modules it's not really a prerequisite for
things to be builtin to be testable. I think there's fair arguments for
moving stuff like pg_stattuple, pg_freespacemap, pg_buffercache into
core at some point, but that's probably a separate discussion.
