I see your point. That seems good to me.
Attached the updated version patch. I've incorporated all review
comments I got and have changed the number of tuples being reported as
'removed tuples'. With this option, tuples completely being removed is
only tuples marked as unused during HOT-pruning, other dead tuples are
left. So we count those tuples during HOT-pruning and reports it as
removed tuples.
