See my remarks/questions about vacuum_cleanup_index_scale_factor
addressed to Masahiko from a little earlier. I think that it might
make sense to just remove it. It might even make sense to disable it
in the backbranches -- that approach might be better than trying to
fix the "IndexVacuumInfo.num_heap_tuples is only representative of the
heap relation at the end of the VACUUM when considered within
btvacuumcleanup()" bug. (Though I'm less confident on this second
point about a backpatchable fix.)
