Commit 866e24d47d added an assert that HEAP_XMAX_LOCK_ONLY and
HEAP_KEYS_UPDATED cannot appear together, on the faulty assumption that
the latter necessarily referred to an update and not a tuple lock; but
that's wrong, because SELECT FOR UPDATE can use precisely that
combination, as evidenced by the amcheck test case added here.
Remove the Assert(), and also patch amcheck's verify_heapam.c to not
complain if the combination is found. Also, out of overabundance of
caution, update (across all branches) README.tuplock to be more explicit
about this.

By default VACUUM will skip pages that it can't immediately get
exclusive access to, which means that even activities as harmless
and unpredictable as checkpoint buffer writes might prevent a page
from being processed. Ordinarily this is no big deal, but we have
a small number of test cases that examine the results of VACUUM's
processing and therefore will fail if the page of interest is skipped.
This seems to be the explanation for some rare buildfarm failures.
To fix, add the DISABLE_PAGE_SKIPPING option to the VACUUM commands
in tests where this could be an issue.
In passing, remove a duplicated query in pageinspect/sql/page.sql.
Back-patch as necessary (some of these cases are as old as v10).

verify_heapam() wasn't being careful to sanity-check tuple line
pointers before using them, resulting in SIGBUS on alignment-picky
architectures. Fix that, add some more test coverage.
Mark Dilger, some tweaking by me
