Hmm, I'm not sure why SortInstrumentation belongs naturally to
tuplesort.h but putting an array of them there would be a "gross
abstraction violation".  Perhaps it would help to rename
struct SharedSortInfo to SortInstrumentationArray, and change its
field names to be less specific to the parallel-worker use case?

OK, I'm not particularly set on that.
