  1. Doc: fix backwards description of visibility map's all-frozen data.

  1. No, that's backwards.

    The documentation at
    https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/storage-vm.html says that
    the visibility map "keeps track of which pages contain only unfrozen
    tuples".
    
    This is wrong; it keeps track of all-frozen pages not all-unfrozen.
    
    Trivial patch attached.
