Here remove some dead code from heapgettup() and heapgettup_pagemode() which was trying to support NoMovementScanDirection scans. This code can never be reached as standard_ExecutorRun() never calls ExecutePlan with NoMovementScanDirection. Additionally, plans which were scanning an unordered index would use NoMovementScanDirection rather than ForwardScanDirection. There was no real need for this, so here we adjust this so we use ForwardScanDirection for unordered index scans. A comment in pathnodes.h claimed that NoMovementScanDirection was used for PathKey reasons, but if that was true, it no longer is, per code in build_index_paths(). This does change the non-text format of the EXPLAIN output so that unordered index scans now have a "Forward" scan direction rather than "NoMovement". The text format of EXPLAIN has not changed.
