The attached patch generalizes from the 9.2 release note wording. I
use the word "inlined" here too, even though commit 5ea86e6e6 did not
do too much with inlining of C code (unlike the 9.2 stuff that went in
a little after SortSupport itself).

Seems better to be consistent with the earlier item, and it is still
probably in some sense true, because the new SortSupport-wise inlined
comparator probably benefits from inlining more than the historic
scanKey-wise inlined comparator, due to the removal of indirection.

As I'm fond of pointing out, inlining is mostly useful as an "enabling
transformation" these days.
