doc: Expand section related to LWLocks and shared memory The documentation includes a section describing how to define custom LWLocks in extensions using the shmem hooks. However, it has never mentioned the second, more flexible method based on the following routines: - LWLockNewTrancheId() to allocate a tranche ID. - LWLockRegisterTranche() to associate a name to a tranche ID. - LWLockInitialize() to initialize a LWLock with a tranche ID. autoprewarm.c is the only example of extension in the tree that allocates a LWLock this way. This commit adds some documentation about all that. While on it, a comment is added about the need of AddinShmemInitLock. This is required especially for EXEC_BACKEND builds (aka Windows, normally), as per a remark from Alexander, because backends can execute shmem initialization paths concurrently.
