AFAIK it's safe because pg_lesslog removes full-page image only when it
has enough information for substitute incremental log.

For example of XLOG_HEAP_INSERT, pg_lesslog generates incremental logs
such as xl_heap_header and tuple image from the inserted tuple in the
full-page image, and replaces full-page image with them.
