Fix a violation of WAL coding rules in the recent patch to include an

"all tuples visible" flag in heap page headers.  The flag update *must*
be applied before calling XLogInsert, but heap_update and the tuple
moving routines in VACUUM FULL were ignoring this rule.  A crash and
replay could therefore leave the flag incorrectly set, causing rows
to appear visible in seqscans when they should not be.  This might explain
recent reports of data corruption from Jeff Ross and others.

In passing, do a bit of editorialization on comments in visibilitymap.c.
