Given a permanent relation rewritten in the current transaction, the
old_snapshot_threshold mechanism assumed the relation had never been
subject to early pruning.  Hence, a query could fail to report "snapshot
too old" when the rewrite followed an early truncation.  ALTER TABLE SET
TABLESPACE is probably the only rewrite mechanism capable of exposing
this bug.  REINDEX sets indcheckxmin, avoiding the problem.  CLUSTER has
zeroed page LSNs since before old_snapshot_threshold existed, so
old_snapshot_threshold has never cooperated with it.  ALTER TABLE
... SET DATA TYPE makes the table look empty to every past snapshot,
which is strictly worse.  Back-patch to v13, where commit
c6b92041 broke this.
