Install an error check into cancel_before_shmem_exit().
Historically, cancel_before_shmem_exit() just silently did nothing if the specified callback wasn't the top-of-stack. The folly of ignoring this case was exposed by the bugs fixed in 30364019 and bab15004, so let's make it throw elog(ERROR) instead. There is a decent argument to be made that PG_ENSURE_ERROR_CLEANUP should use some separate infrastructure, so it wouldn't break if something inside the guarded code decides to register a new before_shmem_exit callback. However, a survey of the surviving uses of before_shmem_exit() and PG_ENSURE_ERROR_CLEANUP doesn't show any plausible conflicts of that sort today, so for now we'll forgo the extra complexity. (It will almost certainly become necessary if anyone ever wants to wrap PG_ENSURE_ERROR_CLEANUP around arbitrary user-defined actions, though.) No backpatch, since this is developer support not a production issue.
