Previously, parallel index and index-only scans packed the parallel scan descriptor and shared instrumentation (for EXPLAIN ANALYZE) into a single DSM allocation. Since scans may be instrumented without being parallel-aware, and vice versa, using separate DSM chunks -- each with its own TOC key -- is cleaner. A future commit will extend this pattern to other scan node types.
