I went back and forth on this one. On the one hand, when we add a
command, if we also add a system view to monitor it, it is usually
considered part of the new command and not something we would mention.
However, the new system view does show progress for existing commands
CLUSTER and VACUUM FULL, and those are kept for compatibility vs
depricated, so it makes sense to mention this system view separately in
the release notes.

I also grouped vacuum items. Applied patch attached.
