Tom Lane b66827ca7c Fix tuple_data_split() to not open a relation without any lock.
contrib/pageinspect's tuple_data_split() function thought it could get
away with opening the referenced relation with NoLock.  In practice
there's no guarantee that the current session holds any lock on that
rel (even if we just read a page from it), so that this is unsafe.

Switch to using AccessShareLock.  Also, postpone closing the relation,
so that we needn't copy its tupdesc.  Also, fix unsafe use of
att_isnull() for attributes past the end of the tuple.

Per testing with a patch that complains if we open a relation without
holding any lock on it.  I don't plan to back-patch that patch, but we
should close the holes it identifies in all supported branches.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------

This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree.  This does not preclude their
usefulness.

User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.

When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target.  You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.

Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types.  To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command.  In a fresh database,
you can simply do

    CREATE EXTENSION module_name;

See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
