Fix potential SSI hazard in heap_update().
Commit 6f38d4dac38 failed to heed a warning about the stability of the
value pointed to by "otid". The caller is allowed to pass in a pointer to
newtup->t_self, which will be updated during the execution of the
function. Instead, the SSI check should use the value we copy into
oldtup.t_self near the top of the function.
Not a live bug, because newtup->t_self doesn't really get updated until
a bit later, but it was confusing and broke the rule established by the
comment.
Back-patch to 13.
