Add GUC option to log lock acquisition failures.
This commit introduces a new GUC, log_lock_failure, which controls whether a detailed log message is produced when a lock acquisition fails. Currently, it only supports logging lock failures caused by SELECT ... NOWAIT. The log message includes information about all processes holding or waiting for the lock that couldn't be acquired, helping users analyze and diagnose the causes of lock failures. Currently, this option does not log failures from SELECT ... SKIP LOCKED, as that could generate excessive log messages if many locks are skipped, causing unnecessary noise. This mechanism can be extended in the future to support for logging lock failures from other commands, such as LOCK TABLE ... NOWAIT.
