I've given a try to this patch. It builds and regresses fine.

My own tests also worked fine. As long as ext1 was found
in the ext2's no_relocate list it could not be relocated,
and proper error message is given to user trying it.

Nitpicking, there are a few things that are weird to me:

1) I don't get any error/warning if I put an arbitrary
string into no_relocate (there's no check to verify the
no_relocate is a subset of the requires).

2) An extension can still reference extensions it depends on
without putting them in no_relocate. This may be intentional,
as some substitutions may not require blocking relocation, but
felt inconsistent with the normal @extschema@ which is never
replaced unless an extension is marked as non-relocatable.
