If I understand correctly, to accomplish this we will need to have the leader
check the number of indexes completed In the ambukdelete or amvacuumcleanup
callbacks. These routines do not know about PVIndStats, and they are called
by both parallel and non-parallel vacuums.
From what I can see, PVIndstats will need to be passed down to these routines
or pass a NULL for non-parallel vacuums.
