Thread flags through begin-scan APIs
Add an AM user-settable flags parameter to several of the table scan
functions, one table AM callback, and index_beginscan(). This allows
users to pass additional context to be used when building the scan
descriptors.
For index scans, a new flags field is added to IndexFetchTableData, and
the heap AM saves the caller-provided flags there.
This introduces an extension point for follow-up work to pass per-scan
information (such as whether the relation is read-only for the current
query) from the executor to the AM layer.
