Rename some toasting functions based on whether they are heap-specific.
The old names for the attribute-detoasting functions names included the word "heap," which seems outdated now that the heap is only one of potentially many table access methods. On the other hand, toast_insert_or_update and toast_delete are heap-specific, so rename them by adding "heap_" as a prefix. Not all of the work of making the TOAST system fully accessible to AMs other than the heap is done yet, but there seems to be little harm in getting this renaming out of the way now. Commit 8b94dab0 already divided up the functions among various files partially according to whether it was intended that they should be heap-specific or AM-agnostic, so this is just clarifying the division contemplated by that commit. Patch by me, reviewed and tested by Prabhat Sabu, Thomas Munro, Andres Freund, and Álvaro Herrera. Discussion: http://postgr.es/m/CA+TgmoZv-=2iWM4jcw5ZhJeL18HF96+W1yJeYrnGMYdkFFnEpQ@mail.gmail.com
