Subject: [PATCH v4 10/19] Make opp freeze heuristic compatible with
 prune+freeze record

Once the prune and freeze records are combined, we will no longer be
able to use a test of whether or not pruning emitted an FPI to decide
whether or not to opportunistically freeze a freezable page.

While this heuristic should be improved, for now, approximate the
previous logic by keeping track of whether or not a hint bit FPI was
emitted during visibility checks (when checksums are on) and combine
that with checking XLogCheckBufferNeedsBackup(). If we just finished
deciding whether or not to prune and the current buffer seems to need an
FPI after modification, it is likely that pruning would have emitted an
FPI.
