The RLS capability is built on top of the WITH CHECK OPTION system which was added for auto-updatable views, however, unlike WCOs on views (which are mandated by the SQL spec to not fire until after all other constraints and checks are done), it makes much more sense for RLS checks to happen earlier than constraint and uniqueness checks. This patch reworks the structure which holds the WCOs a bit to be explicitly either VIEW or RLS checks and the RLS-related checks are done prior to the constraint and uniqueness checks. This also allows better error reporting as we are now reporting when a violation is due to a WITH CHECK OPTION and when it's due to an RLS policy violation, which was independently noted by Craig Ringer as being confusing. The documentation is also updated to include a paragraph about when RLS WITH CHECK handling is performed, as there have been a number of questions regarding that and the documentation was previously silent on the matter.
