pgsql: Reset the binary heap in MergeAppend rescans.

From

Reset the binary heap in MergeAppend rescans.

Failing to do so can cause queries to return wrong data, error out or crash.
This requires adding a new binaryheap_reset() method to binaryheap.c,
but that probably should have been there anyway.

Per bug #8410 from Terje Elde.  Diagnosis and patch by Andres Freund.
