Fix full-table-vacuum request mechanism for MultiXactIds
While autovacuum dutifully launched anti-multixact-wraparound vacuums when the multixact "age" was reached, the vacuum code was not aware that it needed to make them be full table vacuums. As the resulting partial-table vacuums aren't capable of actually increasing relminmxid, autovacuum continued to launch anti-wraparound vacuums that didn't have the intended effect, until age of relfrozenxid caused the vacuum to finally be a full table one via vacuum_freeze_table_age. To fix, introduce logic for multixacts similar to that for plain TransactionIds, using the same GUCs. Backpatch to 9.3, where permanent MultiXactIds were introduced. Andres Freund, some cleanup by Álvaro
