Commit b4af70cb, which simplified state managed by VACUUM, performed
refactoring of parallel VACUUM in passing.  Confusion about the exact
details of the tasks that the leader process is responsible for led to
code that made it possible for parallel VACUUM to miss a subset of the
table's indexes entirely.  Specifically, indexes that fell under the
min_parallel_index_scan_size size cutoff were missed.  These indexes are
supposed to be vacuumed by the leader (alongside any parallel unsafe
indexes), but weren't vacuumed at all.  Affected indexes could easily
end up with duplicate heap TIDs, once heap TIDs were recycled for new
heap tuples.  This had generic symptoms that might be seen with almost
any index corruption involving structural inconsistencies between an
index and its table.

To fix, make sure that the parallel VACUUM leader process performs any
required index vacuuming for indexes that happen to be below the size
cutoff.  Also document the design of parallel VACUUM with these
below-size-cutoff indexes.

It's unclear how many users might be affected by this bug.  There had to
be at least three indexes on the table to hit the bug: a smaller index,
plus at least two additional indexes that themselves exceed the size
cutoff.  Cases with just one additional index would not run into
trouble, since the parallel VACUUM cost model requires two
larger-than-cutoff indexes on the table to apply any parallel
processing.  Note also that autovacuum was not affected, since it never
uses parallel processing.
