Assert lack of hazardous buffer locks before possible catalog read.
Commit 0bada39c83a150079567a6e97b1a25a198f30ea3 fixed a bug of this kind, which existed in all branches for six days before detection. While the probability of reaching the trouble was low, the disruption was extreme. No new backends could start, and service restoration needed an immediate shutdown. Hence, add this to catch the next bug like it. The new check in RelationIdGetRelation() suffices to make autovacuum detect the bug in commit 243e9b40f1b2dd09d6e5bf91ebf6e822a2cd3704 that led to commit 0bada39. This also checks in a number of similar places. It replaces each Assert(IsTransactionState()) that pertained to a conditional catalog read. No back-patch for now, but a back-patch of commit 243e9b4 should back-patch this, too. A back-patch could omit the src/test/regress changes, since back branches won't gain new index columns.
