Committed this part, with the name 'options'. There's some precedent for
that in heap_insert().

I decided to keep it a separate bool field here in the PruneState
struct, though, and only changed it in the heap_page_prune() function
signature. It didn't feel worth the code churn here, and
'prstate.mark_unused_now' is a shorter than "(prstate.options &
HEAP_PRUNE_PAGE_MARK_UNUSED_NOW) != 0" anyway.
