Looking at this stuff, I have been able to come up with the attached,
which introduces a new flag mode for MyXactFlags, which gets set in a
couple of code paths so as PREPARE TRANSACTIOn complains:
- When attempting a LOCK on a temporary relation.
- When dropping objects part of a temporary namespace.
- When trying to access the temporary schema of a session, where it
may be initialized (or not if already present).

I have added test cases for things I could come up with, particularly
the LOCK and DROP cases which I have thought about after hacking the
code. I think that something among those lines should be
back-patched.

Thoughts?
