REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) launches a background worker to decode changes made while the table is being rewritten. The worker connects as the table owner but bypassed the LOGIN check only, so CONNECT was still checked against a role that need not have it, and the command could fail with "permission denied for database". Pass BGWORKER_BYPASS_ALLOWCONN as well, as we do for parallel workers. That is safe because the leader already checked the invoking user's privileges on the table before starting the worker.
