I've started preparing this for commit, and I realized that restricting
GetNamedLWLockTranche() to shmem_startup_hook is not sufficient.
EXEC_BACKEND builds will run this hook in every backend, so unless it's
guarded behind some sort of "if (!found)" condition (i.e., only run in the
postmaster), it'll still crash. I think we just need to add some extra
notes to the docs and check for !IsUnderPostmaster, as discussed upthread.
