Fix improper abort during update chain locking
In 247c76a, I added some code to do fine-grained checking of MultiXact status of locking/updating transactions when traversing an update chain. There was a thinko in that patch which would have the traversing abort, that is return HeapTupleUpdated, when the other transaction is a committed lock-only. In this case we should ignore it and return success instead. Of course, in the case where there is a committed update, HeapTupleUpdated is the correct return value. A user-visible symptom of this bug is that in REPEATABLE READ and SERIALIZABLE transaction isolation modes spurious serializability errors can occur: ERROR: could not serialize access due to concurrent update In order for this to happen, there needs to be a tuple that's key-share- locked and also updated, and the update must abort; a subsequent transaction trying to acquire a new lock on that tuple would abort with the above error. The reason is that the initial FOR KEY SHARE is seen as committed by the new locking transaction, which triggers this bug. (If the UPDATE commits, then the serialization error is correctly reported.) When running a query in READ COMMITTED mode, what happens is that the locking is aborted by the HeapTupleUpdated return value, then EvalPlanQual fetches the newest version of the tuple, which is then the only version that gets locked. (The second time the tuple is checked there is no misbehavior on the committed lock-only, because it's not checked by the code that traverses update chains; so no bug.) Only the newest version of the tuple is locked, not older ones, but this is harmless. The isolation test added by this commit illustrates the desired behavior, including the proper serialization errors that get thrown. Backpatch to 9.3.
