amcheck: Distinguish interrupted page deletion from corruption.

This prevents false-positive reports about "the first child of leftmost
target page is not leftmost of its level", "block %u is not leftmost"
and "left link/right link pair".  They appeared if amcheck ran before
VACUUM cleaned things, after a cluster exited recovery between the
first-stage and second-stage WAL records of a deletion.  Back-patch to
v11 (all supported versions).
