Commitf9b7fc65fixed a race when predicate-locking completely empty btrees: without a buffer lock held, a matching key could be inserted between _bt_search and the PredicateLockRelation call, so the scan would miss concurrently inserted tuples while the writer wouldn't see the reader's predicate lock. That commit only fixed _bt_first's _bt_search path, though. Scans without useful insertion scan keys return early from _bt_first via _bt_endpoint, which still didn't recheck if the relation was empty. To fix, add handling to _bt_endpoint that is analogous to the handling added to _bt_search by commitf9b7fc65.
