Also, I think you should combine these in lazy_scan_noprune() now

/* Save any LP_DEAD items found on the page in dead_items array */
if (vacrel->nindexes == 0)
{
/* Using one-pass strategy (since table has no indexes) */
if (lpdead_items > 0)
{

Since we don't set recordfreespace in the outer if statement anymore

And I noticed you missed a reference to recordfreespace output
parameter in the function comment above lazy_scan_noprune().
