For inplace update durability, make heap_update() callers wait.

The previous commit fixed some ways of losing an inplace update.  It
remained possible to lose one when a backend working toward a
heap_update() copied a tuple into memory just before inplace update of
that tuple.  In catalogs eligible for inplace update, use LOCKTAG_TUPLE
to govern admission to the steps of copying an old tuple, modifying it,
and issuing heap_update().  This includes MERGE commands.  To avoid
changing most of the pg_class DDL, don't require LOCKTAG_TUPLE when
holding a relation lock sufficient to exclude inplace updaters.
Back-patch to v12 (all supported versions).  In v13 and v12, "UPDATE
pg_class" or "UPDATE pg_database" can still lose an inplace update.  The
v14+ UPDATE fix needs commit 86dc90056dfdbd9d1b891718d2e5614e3e432f35,
and it wasn't worth reimplementing that fix without such infrastructure.

+Locking to write inplace-updated tables
+---------------------------------------
+
+If IsInplaceUpdateRelation() returns true for a table, the table is a system
+catalog that receives systable_inplace_update_begin() calls.  Preparing a
+heap_update() of these tables follows additional locking rules, to ensure we
+don't lose the effects of an inplace update.  In particular, consider a moment
+when a backend has fetched the old tuple to modify, not yet having called
+heap_update().  Another backend's inplace update starting then can't conclude
+until the heap_update() places its new tuple in a buffer.  We enforce that
+using locktags as follows.  While DDL code is the main audience, the executor
+follows these rules to make e.g. "MERGE INTO pg_class" safer.  Locking rules
+are per-catalog:
+
+  pg_class systable_inplace_update_begin() callers: before the call, acquire a
+  lock on the relation in mode ShareUpdateExclusiveLock or stricter.  If the
+  update targets a row of RELKIND_INDEX (but not RELKIND_PARTITIONED_INDEX),
+  that lock must be on the table.  Locking the index rel is not necessary.
+  (This allows VACUUM to overwrite per-index pg_class while holding a lock on
+  the table alone.) systable_inplace_update_begin() acquires and releases
+  LOCKTAG_TUPLE in InplaceUpdateTupleLock, an alias for ExclusiveLock, on each
+  tuple it overwrites.
+
+  pg_class heap_update() callers: before copying the tuple to modify, take a
+  lock on the tuple, a ShareUpdateExclusiveLock on the relation, or a
+  ShareRowExclusiveLock or stricter on the relation.
+
+  SearchSysCacheLocked1() is one convenient way to acquire the tuple lock.
+  Most heap_update() callers already hold a suitable lock on the relation for
+  other reasons and can skip the tuple lock.  If you do acquire the tuple
+  lock, release it immediately after the update.
+
+
+  pg_database: before copying the tuple to modify, all updaters of pg_database
+  rows acquire LOCKTAG_TUPLE.  (Few updaters acquire LOCKTAG_OBJECT on the
+  database OID, so it wasn't worth extending that as a second option.)
+
+Ideally, DDL might want to perform permissions checks before LockTuple(), as
+we do with RangeVarGetRelidExtended() callbacks.  We typically don't bother.
+LOCKTAG_TUPLE acquirers release it after each row, so the potential
+inconvenience is lower.
