Tom Lane f260436459 Use elog, not Assert, to report failure to provide an outer snapshot.
As of commit 84f5c2908, executing SQL commands (via SPI or otherwise)
requires having either an active Portal, or a caller-established
active snapshot.  We were simply Assert'ing that that's the case.
But we've now had a couple different reports of people testing
extensions that didn't meet this requirement, and were confused by
the resulting crash.  Let's convert the Assert to a test-and-elog,
in hopes of making the issue clearer for extension authors.

Per gripes from Liu Huailing and RekGRpth.  Back-patch to v11,
like the prior commit.

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:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download

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.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
