In spite of being careful, I missed reorganizing the functions in

Rebased patches are attached.  I have fixed few review comments in
these patches.
parallel_index_scan_v6 - Changed the function btparallelrescan so that
it always expects a valid parallel scan descriptor.
parallel_index_opt_exec_support_v6 - Removed the usage of
GatherSupportsBackwardScan.  Expanded the comments in
ExecReScanIndexScan.
