Reduce COPY IN lock from AccessExclusive to a more reasonable

RowExclusive (my fault).  Also, install a check to prevent people
from trying COPY BINARY to stdout/from stdin.  No way that will
work unless we redesign the frontend COPY protocol ... which is
not worth the trouble in the near future ...
