Robert Haas a892234f83 Change the format of the VM fork to add a second bit per page. ... The new bit indicates whether every tuple on the page is already frozen. It is cleared only when the all-visible bit is cleared, and it can be set only when we vacuum a page and find that every tuple on that page is both visible to every transaction and in no need of any future vacuuming. A future commit will use this new bit to optimize away full-table scans that would otherwise be triggered by XID wraparound considerations. A page which is merely all-visible must still be scanned in that case, but a page which is all-frozen need not be. This commit does not attempt that optimization, although that optimization is the goal here. It seems better to get the basic infrastructure in place first. Per discussion, it's very desirable for pg_upgrade to automatically migrate existing VM forks from the old format to the new format. That, too, will be handled in a follow-on patch.
