BitmapHeapScan: Remove incorrect assert and reset field
04e72ed617be pushed the skip fetch optimization (allowing bitmap heap
scans to operate like index-only scans if none of the underlying data is
needed) into heap AM implementations of bitmap table scan callbacks.
04e72ed617be added an assert that all tuples in blocks eligible for the
optimization had been NULL-filled and emitted by the end of the scan.
This assert is incorrect when not all tuples need be scanned to execute
the query; for example: a join in which not all inner tuples need to be
scanned before skipping to the next outer tuple.
Remove the assert and reset the field on which it previously asserted to
avoid incorrectly emitting NULL-filled tuples from a previous scan on
rescan.
