Prevent concurrent SimpleLruTruncate() for any given SLRU.
The SimpleLruTruncate() header comment states the new coding rule. To achieve this, add locktype "frozenid" and two LWLocks. This closes a rare opportunity for data loss, which manifested as "apparent wraparound" or "could not access status of transaction" errors. Data loss is more likely in pg_multixact, due to released branches' thin margin between multiStopLimit and multiWrapLimit. If a user's physical replication primary logged ": apparent wraparound" messages, the user should rebuild standbys of that primary regardless of symptoms. At less risk is a cluster having emitted "not accepting commands" errors or "must be vacuumed" warnings at some point. One can test a cluster for this data loss by running VACUUM FREEZE in every database. Back-patch to 9.5 (all supported versions).
