pgsql: Fix wrong data table horizon computation during backend startup.

Fix wrong data table horizon computation during backend startup.

When ComputeXidHorizons() was called before MyDatabaseOid is set,
e.g. because a dead row in a shared relation is encountered during
InitPostgres(), the horizon for normal tables was computed too
aggressively, ignoring all backends connected to a database.

During subsequent pruning in a data table the too aggressive horizon
could end up still being used, possibly leading to still needed tuples
being removed. Not good.

This is a bug in dc7420c2c92, which the test added in 94bc27b5768 made
visible, if run with force_parallel_mode set to regress. In that case
the bug is reliably triggered, because "pruning_query" is run in a
parallel worker and the start of that parallel worker is likely to
encounter a dead row in pg_database.

The fix is trivial: Compute a more pessimistic data table horizon if
MyDatabaseId is not yet known.
