I think the patch is almost ready to commit, but still
have some comments for the usability and documentations.
I hope native English speakers would help improving docs.

* Documentation could be a bit more simplified like as
  "CLUSTER requires twice disk spaces of your original table".
  The added description seems too difficult for standard users.

* How to determine which method was used?
  We can get some information from trace_sort logs,
  but CLUSTER VERBOSE would be better to log
  which CLUSTER method was used.

* How to control which method will be used?
  It might be good to explain we can control the method
  with enable_seqscan/indexscan.
