Log Message:
-----------
Move the tuple freezing point in CLUSTER to a point further back in the past,
to avoid losing useful Xid information in not-so-old tuples. This makes
CLUSTER behave the same as VACUUM as far a tuple-freezing behavior goes
(though CLUSTER does not yet advance the table's relfrozenxid).

While at it, move the actual freezing operation in rewriteheap.c to a more
appropriate place, and document it thoroughly. This part of the patch from
Tom Lane.
