Commit 4deb4138 modified isolationtester's query to see whether a session is blocked to also check for waits occurring in GetSafeSnapshot. However, it did that in a way that enormously increased the query's runtime under CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS, causing the buildfarm members that use that to run about four times slower than before, and in some cases fail entirely. To fix, push the entire logic into a dedicated backend function. This should actually reduce the CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS runtime from what it was previously, though I've not checked that. In passing, expose a SQL function to check for safe-snapshot blockage, comparable to pg_blocking_pids. This is more or less free given the infrastructure built to solve the other problem, so we might as well.
