Thread: Disallow concurrent ALTER DOMAIN and DROP DOMAIN

Disallow concurrent ALTER DOMAIN and DROP DOMAIN

similar to thread "Prevent internal error at concurrent CREATE OR
REPLACE FUNCTION"
[1].

We should prevent concurrent modifications to a domain's definition. Currently,
it is possible for one session to drop a domain while another session
simultaneously adds a constraint to it.
It may result in errors such as "tuple concurrently updated."

also dropping a domain should not be allowed if another session is
modifying it, IMHO.

The attached patch is very similar to the "CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION"
thread [1],
by acquiring a AccessExclusiveLock on the changed domain oid.
Other sessions must wait for the current transactions to finish
modifying the domain definition
before making changes on it.
