What about non-destabilizing changes?  It seems to me that we could do
some good with a pretty simple patch that just moves most of the logic
from needs_toast_table() below tableam, as in the attached.  Then we
could leave the broader refactoring for v13.

Maybe this is still too much, but it seems pretty simple so I thought I'd ask.
