After further testing I found a bug --- it involves having a security
barrier view on top of a base relation that has a rule that rewrites
the query to have a different result relation, and possibly also a
different command type, so that the securityQuals are no longer on the
result relation, which is a code path not previously tested and the
rowmark handling was wrong. That's probably a pretty obscure case in
the context of security barrier views, but that code path would be
used much more commonly if RLS were built on top of this. Fortunately
the fix is trivial --- updated patch attached.

Regards,
Dean
