What's the purpose of the "HeapScanHintPagePrune" mechanism in index
builds? I lost track of the discussion on create index, is the it
necessary for correctness? A comment in IndexBuildHeapScan explaining
why it's done would be nice. In any case a PG_TRY/CATCH block should be
used to make sure it's turned off after an unsuccessful index build.
