Getting rid of HEAP_MOVED_IN and HEAP_MOVED_OUT would be really nice,
but I don't see why we need to squeeze anything into 9.2 for any of
this. pg_upgrade can certainly handle the addition of a new pg_class
column, and can arrange for in-place upgrades from pre-9.3 versions to
9.3 to set the flag to the appropriate value.
