Fix "single value strategy" index deletion issue.

It is not appropriate for deduplication to apply single value strategy
when triggered by a bottom-up index deletion pass.  This wastes cycles
because later bottom-up deletion passes will overinterpret older
duplicate tuples that deduplication actually just skipped over "by
design".  It also makes bottom-up deletion much less effective for low
cardinality indexes that happen to cross a meaningless "index has single
key value per leaf page" threshold.

To fix, slightly narrow the conditions under which deduplication's
single value strategy is considered.  We already avoided the strategy
for a unique index, since our high level goal must just be to buy time
for VACUUM to run (not to buy space).  We'll now also avoid it when we
just had a bottom-up pass that reported failure.  The two cases share
the same high level goal, and already overlapped significantly, so this
approach is quite natural.

Oversight in commit d168b666, which added bottom-up index deletion.
