Skip redundant anti-wraparound vacuums
An anti-wraparound vacuum has to be by definition aggressive as it needs
to work on all the pages of a relation. However it can happen that due
to some concurrent activity an anti-wraparound vacuum is marked as
non-aggressive, which makes it redundant with a previous run, and
it is actually useless as an anti-wraparound vacuum should process all
the pages of a relation. This commit makes such vacuums to be skipped.
An anti-wraparound vacuum not aggressive can be found easily by mixing
low values of autovacuum_freeze_max_age (to control anti-wraparound) and
autovacuum_freeze_table_age (to control the aggressiveness).
28a8fa9 has added some extra logging printing all the possible
combinations of anti-wraparound and aggressive vacuums, which now gets
simplified as an anti-wraparound vacuum also non-aggressive gets
skipped.
Per discussion mainly between Andrew Dunstan, Robert Haas, Álvaro
Herrera, Kyotaro Horiguchi, Masahiko Sawada, and myself.
