Uh, this whole thread is about implementing REINDEX (TABLESPACE foo), and the
preliminary patch 0001 is to keep separate the tablespace parts of that
content.  0002 is a minor tangent which I assume would be squished into 0001
which cleans up historic cruft, using new params in favour of historic options.

I think my change is probably incomplete, and ReindexStmt node should not have
an int options.  parse_reindex_params() would parse it into local int *options
and char **tablespacename params.
