HAA did not pick up the need for NPSIs to be reorged when TS was being reorged

JSON Indexing on non-inline LOBs

Currently IBM allows the creation of indexes for JSON docs stored in an inline LOB but not a non-inline LOB. We want to make full use of JSON docs in DB2 for zOS. We wanted to avoid having to move more apps to MongoDB.
