Subject: [PATCH 1/3] Refactor TRUNCATE execution to avoid early lock lookups

A caller of TRUNCATE can perform early lookup obtention which can cause
other sessions to block on the request done, causing potentially DOS
attacks as even a non-privileged user can attempt a truncation of a
critical catalog table to block even all incoming connection attempts.

This commit fixes the case of TRUNCATE so as RangeVarGetRelidExtended is
used with a callback doing the necessary checks at an earlier stage,
avoiding locking issues at early stages.
