Fix deadlock hazard in CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY
Multiple sessions doing CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY simultaneously are supposed to be able to work in parallel, as evidenced by fixes in commit c3d09b3b specifically to support this case. In reality, one of the sessions would be aborted by a misterious "deadlock detected" error. Jeff Janes diagnosed that this is because of leftover snapshots used for system catalog scans -- this was broken by 8aa3e475 keeping track of (registering) the catalog snapshot. To fix the deadlocks, it's enough to de-register that snapshot prior to waiting. Backpatch to 9.4, which introduced MVCC catalog scans. Include an isolationtester spec that 8 out of 10 times reproduces the deadlock with the unpatched code for me (Álvaro).
