Thomas Munro 0f275b0ee8 Fix race in SSI interaction with empty btrees.
When predicate-locking btrees, we have a special case for completely
empty btrees, since there is no page to lock.  This was racy, because,
without buffer lock held, a matching key could be inserted between the
_bt_search() and the PredicateLockRelation() calls.

Fix, by rechecking _bt_search() after taking the relation-level SIREAD
lock, if using SERIALIZABLE isolation and an empty btree is discovered.

Back-patch to all supported releases.  Fixes one aspect of bug #17949.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.
