Commit ac58465e06 moved the discussion on clustering from CLUSTER's
refpage to REPACK's, but somehow introduced a mistake regarding when
exactly can the seqscan-and-sort strategy be used with respect to btrees
(spoiler: it was 100% backwards). Fix that, but also restructure and
reword the whole subsection more fully to try and make it more coherent.
