I thought the TODO item was for a low-level read-only option, suitable
for trying to look at a corrupted database or run off a read-only volume.
This is very far from being that --- it allows temp table creation/use,
and it still eats transaction IDs so it is certainly not read-only to
xlog or clog.
I am not sure I see any use case for this implementation: it is
read-only enough to get in your way, without being read-only enough
to derive any real benefit.
