WAL log VM setting during vacuum phase I in XLOG_HEAP2_PRUNE_VACUUM_SCAN
Vacuum no longer emits a separate WAL record for each page set
all-visible or all-frozen during phase I. Instead, visibility map
updates are now included in the XLOG_HEAP2_PRUNE_VACUUM_SCAN record that
is already emitted for pruning and freezing.
Previously, heap_page_prune_and_freeze() determined whether a page was
all-visible, but the corresponding VM bits were only set later in
lazy_scan_prune(). Now the VM is updated immediately in
heap_page_prune_and_freeze(), at the same time as the heap
modifications. This reduces WAL volume produced by vacuum.
For now, vacuum is still the only user of heap_page_prune_and_freeze()
allowed to set the VM. On-access pruning is not yet able to set the VM.
