Fix ExecOpenScanRelation to take a lock on a ROW_MARK_COPY relation.
ExecOpenScanRelation assumed that any relation listed in the ExecRowMark list has been locked by InitPlan; but this is not true if the rel's markType is ROW_MARK_COPY, which is possible if it's a foreign table. In most (possibly all) cases, failure to acquire a lock here isn't really problematic because the parser, planner, or plancache would have taken the appropriate lock already. In principle though it might leave us vulnerable to working with a relation that we hold no lock on, and in any case if the executor isn't depending on previously-taken locks otherwise then it should not do so for ROW_MARK_COPY relations. Noted by Etsuro Fujita. Back-patch to all active versions, since the inconsistency has been there a long time. (It's almost certainly irrelevant in 9.0, since that predates foreign tables, but the code's still wrong on its own terms.)
