-       Number of rows returned by queries in this database
+       Number of live rows returned by sequential scans of queries in this database

-       Number of rows fetched by queries in this database
+       Number of live rows fetched by index scan of queries in this database

I found the following comments in pgstat.h. So maybe even these
new descriptions are incorrect?

  * Note: for a table, tuples_returned is the number of tuples successfully
  * fetched by heap_getnext, while tuples_fetched is the number of tuples
  * successfully fetched by heap_fetch under the control of bitmap indexscans.
  * For an index, tuples_returned is the number of index entries returned by
  * the index AM, while tuples_fetched is the number of tuples successfully
  * fetched by heap_fetch under the control of simple indexscans for this index.
