(Sorry if this was discussed already, I haven't been paying attention)
LWLockAssign() is used by extensions. Are we OK with just breaking them,
requiring them to change LWLockAssign() with the new mechanism, with
#ifdefs to support multiple server versions? Seems like it shouldn't be
too hard to keep LWLockAssign() around for the benefit of extensions, so
it seems a bit inconsiderate to remove it.
