When updating or deleting a system catalog tuple, it's necessary to acquire RowExclusiveLock on the catalog before looking up the tuple; otherwise a concurrent VACUUM FULL on the catalog might move the tuple to a different TID before we can apply the update. Coding patterns that find the tuple via a table scan aren't at risk here, but when obtaining the tuple from a catalog cache, correct ordering is important; and several routines in foreigncmds.c got it wrong. Noted while running the regression tests in parallel with VACUUM FULL of assorted system catalogs. For consistency I moved all the heap_open calls to the starts of their functions, including a couple for which there was no actual bug. Back-patch to 8.4 where foreigncmds.c was added.
