f83d709760d8 refactored xl_heap_prune and added an unused member,
reason. While PruneReason is used when constructing this WAL record to
set the WAL record definition, it doesn't need to be stored in a
separate field in the record. Remove it.

We won't backport this, since modifying an exposed struct definition to
remove an unused field would do more harm than good.
