The tag will not add all that informative details, because the
relfilenode isn't easily mappable to the table name or such.

Hm, wonder if could be worthwhile to not use a separate struct here, but
instead extend one of the existing structs to contain the necessary
information. Or perhaps have one new struct with all the necessary
information. There's already quite a few places that do
get_namespace_name(), for example.

Not a fan of "cbarg", too generic.

I think this will misattribute errors that happen when in the:
/*
* If we are close to overrunning the available space for
dead-tuple
* TIDs, pause and do a cycle of vacuuming before we tackle
this page.
*/
section of lazy_scan_heap(). That will
a) scan the index, during which we presumably don't want the same error
context, as it'd be quite misleading: The block that was just scanned
in the loop isn't actually likely to be the culprit for an index
problem. And we'd not mention the fact that the problem is occurring
in the index.
b) will report the wrong block, when in lazy_vacuum_heap().
