Previously, running REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) on a materialized view failed with a confusing "has no identity index" error. REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) replays changes decoded from WAL, but a materialized view produces none, since it cannot be modified by DML and REFRESH rewrites it through a transient heap that is not logically decoded. Fix this by reporting a clear error for materialized views upfront, alongside the existing checks for system catalogs and TOAST tables, and document the limitation.
