Refactor checks for deleted GiST pages.

The explicit check in gistScanPage() isn't currently really necessary, as
a deleted page is always empty, so the loop would fall through without
doing anything, anyway. But it's a marginal optimization, and it gives a
nice place to attach a comment to explain how it works.

Backpatch to v12, where GiST page deletion was introduced.
