pgstattuple: Optimize pgstattuple_approx() with streaming read

This commit plugs into pgstattuple_approx(), the SQL function faster
than pgstattuple() that returns approximate results, the streaming read
APIs.  A callback is used to be able to skip all-visible pages via VM
lookup, to match with the logic prior to this commit.

Under test conditions similar to 6c228755add8 (some dm_delay and
debug_io_direct=data), this can substantially improve the execution time
of the function, particularly for large relations.
