Remove explicit superuser checks in favor of ACLs
This removes the explicit superuser checks in the various file-access
functions in the backend, specifically pg_ls_dir(), pg_read_file(),
pg_read_binary_file(), and pg_stat_file(). Instead, EXECUTE is REVOKE'd
from public for these, meaning that only a superuser is able to run them
by default, but access to them can be GRANT'd to other roles.
