Various improvements of skipping index scan during vacuum technics
- Change vacuum_cleanup_index_scale_factor GUC to PGC_USERSET.
vacuum_cleanup_index_scale_factor GUC was defined as PGC_SIGHUP. But this
GUC affects not only autovacuum. So it might be useful to change it from user
session in order to influence manually runned VACUUM.
- Add missing tab-complete support for vacuum_cleanup_index_scale_factor
reloption.
- Fix condition for B-tree index cleanup.
Zero value of vacuum_cleanup_index_scale_factor means that user wants B-tree
index cleanup to be never skipped.
- Documentation and comment improvements
