While working on a set of patches to combine the freeze and visibility
map WAL records into the prune record, I wrote the attached patches
reusing the tuple visibility information collected in heap_page_prune()
back in lazy_scan_prune().
heap_page_prune() collects the HTSV_Result for every tuple on a page
and saves it in an array used by heap_prune_chain(). If we make that
array available to lazy_scan_prune(), it can use it when collecting
stats for vacuum and determining whether or not to freeze tuples.
This avoids calling HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum() again on every tuple in
the page.
It also gets rid of the retry loop in lazy_scan_prune().
