Okay, I have changed accordingly and this means that the offset will
be displayed for the vacuum phase as well. Apart from this, I have
fixed all the comments raised by me in the attached patch. One thing
we need to think is do we want to set offset during heap_page_prune
when called from lazy_scan_heap? I think the code path for
heap_prune_chain is quite deep, so an error can occur in that path.
What do you think?
