Andres Freund 5997a8f4d7 Remove reindex_catalog test from test schedules.
As none of the approaches for avoiding the deadlock issues seem
promising enough, and all the expected reindex related changes have
been made, apply 60c2951e1b to master as well.

-- Check that system tables can be reindexed.
--
-- Note that this test currently is not included in the default
-- schedules, as currently reindexing catalog tables can cause
-- deadlocks:
--
-- * The lock upgrade between the ShareLock acquired for the reindex
-- and RowExclusiveLock needed for pg_class/pg_index locks can
-- trigger deadlocks.
--
-- * The uniqueness checks performed when reindexing a unique/primary
-- key index possibly need to wait for the transaction of a
-- about-to-deleted row in pg_class to commit. That can cause
-- deadlocks because, in contrast to user tables, locks on catalog
-- tables are routinely released before commit - therefore the lock
-- held for reindexing doesn't guarantee that no running transaction
-- performed modifications in the table underlying the index.
--
-- This is particularly problematic as such conflicts can be
-- triggered even when run in isolation, as a previous session's
-- temporary table cleanup might still be running (even when the
-- session ended from a client perspective).

-- Check that individual system indexes can be reindexed. That's a bit
