Avoid having two copies of the HOT-chain search logic.

Browse Source 
It's been like this since HOT was originally introduced, but the logic
is complex enough that this is a recipe for bugs, as we've already
found out with SSI.  So refactor heap_hot_search_buffer() so that it
can satisfy the needs of index_getnext(), and make index_getnext() use
that rather than duplicating the logic.

This change was originally proposed by Heikki Linnakangas as part of a
larger refactoring oriented towards allowing index-only scans.  I
extracted and adjusted this part, since it seems to have independent
merit.  Review by Jeff Davis.
