Rename LVRelState VM-related logging counters The LVRelState fields that track newly all-visible/all-frozen pages were previously named vm_new_visible_pages, vm_new_frozen_pages, and vm_new_visible_frozen_pages. The correct terminology is all-visible and all-frozen; omitting “all” was open to misinterpretation, as the page isn't visible or invisible, rather all the tuples on the page are visible to all running and future transactions. Rename the members accordingly.
