Do we really want to use a cstring as an enum-like argument?
I think that I see a bug at this point in check_tuple() (in
v15-0001-Adding-function-verify_heapam-to-amcheck-module.patch):

Why should it be okay to call TransactionIdIsNormal(xmax) at this
point? It isn't certain that xmax is an XID at all (could be a
MultiXactId, since you called HeapTupleHeaderGetRawXmax() to get the
value in the first place). Don't you need to check "(infomask &
HEAP_XMAX_IS_MULTI) == 0" here?
This does look like it's shaping up. Thanks for working on it, Mark.
