And...since there's a new bump context patch, I wanted to anticipate
squeezing an update on top of that, if that gets committed. 0004/5 are
the v6 bump context, and 0006 uses it for vacuum. The rest are to show
it works -- the expected.out changes make possible problems in CI
easier to see. The allocation size is 16 bytes, so this difference is
entirely due to lack of chunk header:

aset: 6619136
bump: 5047296

(Note: assert builds still have the chunk header for sanity checking,
so this was done in a more optimized build)
