The simple patch is admirable, but not something we should put into core.

I definitely don't agree with the premise that all existing heap
options should be common across all new or extension tableAMs. There
are dozens of such options and I don't believe that they would all
have meaning in all future storage plugins.

I think options should just work exactly the same for Indexes and Tables.
