pg_prewarm() currently checks for SELECT privileges on the target relation. However, indexes do not have access rights of their own, so a role may be denied permission to prewarm an index despite having the SELECT privilege on its parent table. This commit fixes this by locking the parent table before the index (to avoid deadlocks) and checking for SELECT on the parent table. Note that the code is largely borrowed from amcheck_lock_relation_and_check(). An obvious downside of this change is the extra AccessShareLock on the parent table during prewarming, but that isn't expected to cause too much trouble in practice.
