In the spirit of incremental improvement, here is a patch that turns the
couple of bools in PGPROC into a bitmask, and associated fallout.

This patch also contains a change to make a cancelled autovacuum
continue with the schedule (indeed to continue with the schedule on any
error), rather than aborting completely.

My idea is to add a flag for "analyze" and another for "is for xid
wraparound", and to build on that for the cancel-autovac-on-deadlock-
checker project, as submitted by Simon.
