Hm, yeah. The table title says "opclass", and that's definitely the
name that would be more useful to most users, so we should list opclass
not opfamily names. There are some other cases of opfname != opcname
in gist and brin, but those tables seem to give the opclass name in
each such case, so it's just this one mistake.
