Log Message:
-----------
Ensure that a cursor has an immutable snapshot throughout its lifespan.

The old coding was using a regular snapshot, referenced elsewhere, that was
subject to having its command counter updated. Fix by creating a private copy
of the snapshot exclusively for the cursor.

Backpatch to 8.4, which is when the bug was introduced during the snapshot
management rewrite.
