I don't think we should remove clusterdb, to avoid breaking any scripts
that work today.  As you say, I would create the standalone pg_repackdb
to do what we need it to do (namely: run the REPACK commands) and leave
vacuumdb and clusterdb alone.  Removing the obsolete commands and
options can be done in a few years.
