Looks new:
+ RELOPT_KIND_INDEX = RELOPT_KIND_BTREE|RELOPT_KIND_HASH|RELOPT_KIND_GIN|RELOPT_KIND_SPGIST,
there aren't any other "for all indexes" type options, so the whole
category didn't exist before.
It also strikes me as a really bad idea, even if RELOPT_KIND_GIST
wouldn't have been omitted: It breaks index am extensibility.
