Support index-only scans using the visibility map to avoid heap fetches.
When a btree index contains all columns required by the query, and the visibility map shows that all tuples on a target heap page are visible-to-all, we don't need to fetch that heap page. This patch depends on the previous patches that made the visibility map reliable. There's a fair amount left to do here, notably trying to figure out a less chintzy way of estimating the cost of an index-only scan, but the core functionality seems ready to commit. Robert Haas and Ibrar Ahmed, with some previous work by Heikki Linnakangas.
