There is always a risk of breaking something that worked previously,
and we would be out of options to address these once the branch is
EOL'd.  The risk/reward ratio for v12 is really different, so I'd
advise some caution particularly with this area of the code.

I didn't push the fixes for release 12, like you requested, but I pushed the rest.

Unfortunately for various reasons I don't currently have a Windows test instance, but these were previously tested by Alexandra and me so I'm pretty confident they will be ok.

When I get my hands on a Windows machine again I will work on adding some Windows tests for pg_reqind with tablespaces.
