Fix that. Suppose A is a redirect line pointer and B is the other line pointer to which it points. The old code could mishandle this situation in a couple of different ways. First, if B was unused, we'd complain about corruption but still set lp_valid[A] = true, causing later code to try to access the B as if it were pointing to a tuple. Second, if B was dead, we wouldn't complain about corruption at all, which is an oversight, and would also set lp_valid[A] = true, which would again confuse later code. Fix all that. In the case where B is a redirect, the old code was correct, but refactor things a bit anyway so that all of these cases are handled more symmetrically. Also add an Assert() and some comments.
