When creating or manipulating a cached plan for a transaction control command (particularly ROLLBACK), we must not perform any catalog accesses, since we might be in an aborted transaction. However, plancache.c busily saved or examined the search_path for every cached plan. If we were unlucky enough to do this at a moment where the path's expansion into schema OIDs wasn't already cached, we'd do some catalog accesses; and with some more bad luck such as an ill-timed signal arrival, that could lead to crashes or Assert failures, as exhibited in bug #8095 from Nachiket Vaidya. Fortunately, there's no real need to consider the search path for such commands, so we can just skip the relevant steps when the subject statement is a TransactionStmt. This is somewhat related to bug #5269, though the failure happens during initial cached-plan creation rather than revalidation. This bug has been there since the plan cache was invented, so back-patch to all supported branches.
