Disallow foreign-key references from temp tables to permanent tables.
...
Per recent discussion, this does not work because other backends can't
reliably see tuples in a temp table and so cannot run the RI checks
correctly. Seems better to disallow this case than go back to accessing
temp tables through shared buffers. Also, disallow FK references to
ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS tables. We already caught this problem for normal
TRUNCATE, but the path used by ON COMMIT didn't check.

libpq failed to cope with COPY FROM STDIN if the command was issued
...
via extended query protocol, because it sends Sync right after Execute
without realizing that the command to be executed is COPY. There seems
to be no reasonable way for it to realize that, either, so the best fix
seems to be to make the backend ignore Sync during copy-in mode. Bit of
a wart on the protocol, but little alternative. Also, libpq must send
another Sync after terminating the COPY, if the command was issued via
Execute.
