Change GetMultiXactInfo() to return the next multixact offset

This routine returned a number of members as a MultiXactOffset,
calculated based on the difference between the next-to-be-assigned
offset and the oldest offset. However, this number is not actually an
offset but a number.

This type confusion comes from the original implementation of
MultiXactMemberFreezeThreshold(), in 53bb309d2d5a. The number of
members is now defined as a uint64, large enough for MultiXactOffset.
This change will be used in a follow-up patch.
