pg_dump looks at the pg_class.reloptions array directly.  In the vacuum
code, we look at the pre-parsed rd_options (see RelationParseRelOptions()
in relcache.c), which will have already resolved vacuum_truncate to its
default value if it was not explicitly set.  We could probably look at
pg_class.reloptions directly in the vacuum code if we _really_ wanted to,
but I felt that putting this information into rd_options was much cleaner.
