Does this mean a new bitmap of "actually changed values" that's a
subset of targeted columns?
If so it feels like quite a few bitmaps and we might need to expand
some comments to explain the subtle meanings of each, and when they are
valid, and what kinds of false positives they might contain (hopefully
none have false negatives).
Also, the "actually changed values" is only valid for a single tuple,
and it would be good to clarify that and make sure there's not a lot of
room for confusion there.
