Don't hold ProcArrayLock longer than needed in rare cases

While cancelling an autovacuum worker, we hold ProcArrayLock while
formatting a debugging log string.  We can make this shorter by saving
the data we need to produce the message and doing the formatting outside
the locked region.

This isn't terribly critical, as it only occurs pretty rarely: when a
backend runs deadlock detection and it happens to be blocked by a
autovacuum running autovacuum.  Still, there's no need to cause a hiccup
in ProcArrayLock processing, which can be very high-traffic in some
cases.

While at it, rework code so that we only print the string when it is
really going to be used, as suggested by Michael Paquier.
