Remove HeapTupleheaderSetXminCommitted/Invalid functions

They are not and never have been used by any known code -- apparently we
just cargo-culted them in commit 37484ad2aace (or their ancestor macros
anyway, which begat these functions in commit 34694ec888d6).  Allegedly
they're also potentially dangerous; users are better off going through
HeapTupleSetHintBits instead.
