Alexander Korotkov fd83c83d09 Fix deadlock in GIN vacuum introduced by 218f51584d
Before 218f51584d if posting tree page is about to be deleted, then the whole
posting tree is locked by LockBufferForCleanup() on root preventing all the
concurrent inserts.  218f51584d reduced locking to the subtree containing
page to be deleted.  However, due to concurrent parent split, inserter doesn't
always holds pins on all the pages constituting path from root to the target
leaf page.  That could cause a deadlock between GIN vacuum process and GIN
inserter.  And we didn't find non-invasive way to fix this.

This commit reverts VACUUM behavior to lock the whole posting tree before
delete any page.  However, we keep another useful change by 218f51584d: the
tree is locked only if there are pages to be deleted.
