Fix busted logic for parallel lock grouping in TopoSort().
A "break" statement erroneously left behind by commit a1c1af2a1
caused TopoSort to do the wrong thing if a lock's wait list
contained multiple members of the same locking group.
Because parallel workers don't normally need any locks not already
taken by their leader, this is very hard --- maybe impossible ---
to hit in production. Still, if it did happen, the queries involved
in an otherwise-resolvable deadlock would block until canceled.
In addition to removing the bogus "break", add an Assert showing
that the conflicting uses of the beforeConstraints[] array (for both
counts and flags) don't overlap, and add some commentary explaining
why not; because it's not obvious without explanation, IMHO.
Original report and patch from Rui Hai Jiang; additional assert
and commentary by me. Back-patch to 9.6 where the bug came in.
