Heikki Linnakangas 7aa00f1360 Refactor heap_prune_chain()
Keep track of the number of deleted tuples in PruneState and record this
information when recording a tuple dead, unused or redirected. This
removes a special case from the traversal and chain processing logic as
well as setting a precedent of recording the impact of prune actions in
the record functions themselves. This paradigm will be used in future
commits which move tracking of additional statistics on pruning actions
from lazy_scan_prune() to heap_prune_chain().

Simplify heap_prune_chain()'s chain traversal logic by handling each
case explicitly. That is, do not attempt to share code when processing
different types of chains. For each category of chain, process it
specifically and procedurally: first handling the root, then any
intervening tuples, and, finally, the end of the chain.

While we are at it, add a few new comments to heap_prune_chain()
clarifying some special cases involving RECENTLY_DEAD tuples.
