Fix HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum on aborted updater xacts
By using only the macro that checks infomask bits
HEAP_XMAX_IS_LOCKED_ONLY to verify whether a multixact is not an
updater, and not the full HeapTupleHeaderIsOnlyLocked, it would come to
the wrong result in case of a multixact containing an aborted update;
therefore returning the wrong result code. This would cause predicate.c
to break completely (as in bug report #8273 from David Leverton), and
certain index builds would misbehave. As far as I can tell, other
callers of the bogus routine would make harmless mistakes or not be
affected by the difference at all; so this was a pretty narrow case.
Also, no other user of the HEAP_XMAX_IS_LOCKED_ONLY macro is as
careless; they all check specifically for the HEAP_XMAX_IS_MULTI case,
and they all verify whether the updater is InvalidXid before concluding
that it's a valid updater. So there doesn't seem to be any similar bug.
