I suppose inserting HOT tuples without index maintenance is useful

separated out but you can't commit without them.
There are few things that we can separate easily, like CREATE INDEX
related changes, VACUUM and VACUUM FULL related changed, space
reuse related changes etc. Let me give it a shot.
Did we ever get a broken up patch for this?
