heapam: Track heap block in IndexFetchHeapData.
Add an explicit BlockNumber field (xs_blk) to IndexFetchHeapData that
tracks which heap block is currently pinned in xs_cbuf.
heapam_index_fetch_tuple now uses xs_blk to determine when buffer
switching is needed, replacing the previous approach that compared
buffer identities via ReleaseAndReadBuffer on every non-HOT-chain call.
This is preparatory work for an upcoming commit that will add index
prefetching using a read stream. Delegating the release of a currently
pinned buffer to ReleaseAndReadBuffer won't work anymore -- at least not
when the next buffer that the scan needs to pin is one returned by
read_stream_next_buffer (not a buffer returned by ReadBuffer).
