Hmm. I am not sure if we really need to change the definition of this
field, because it can have the same meaning when using a REINDEX on a
partitioned table, pointing to the parent table (the partition) of the
index currently rebuilt.

Hence, rather than a partition_relid, could a partitioned_relid
reflect better the situation, set only when issuing a REINDEX on a
partitioned relation?

Shouldn't we report the partitioned index OID rather than its parent
table when running a REINDEX on a partitioned index?
