Peter Geoghegan 10a8d13823 Truncate line pointer array during heap pruning. 
Reclaim space from the line pointer array when heap pruning leaves
behind a contiguous group of LP_UNUSED items at the end of the array.
This happens during subsequent page defragmentation.  Certain kinds of
heap line pointer bloat are ameliorated by this new optimization.

Follow-up work to commit 3c3b8a4b26, which taught VACUUM to truncate the
line pointer array in about the same way during VACUUM's second pass
over the heap.  We now apply line pointer array truncation during both
the first and the second pass over the heap made by VACUUM.  We can also
perform line pointer array truncation during opportunistic pruning.

Matthias van de Meent, with small tweaks by me.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
