Modify btree to delete known-dead index entries without an actual VACUUM.

When we are about to split an index page to do an insertion, first look
to see if any entries marked LP_DELETE exist on the page, and if so remove
them to try to make enough space for the desired insert.  This should reduce
index bloat in heavily-updated tables, although of course you still need
VACUUM eventually to clean up the heap.
