An shorter (?) reproducer might be the following, which forces any
value for 'a' to be toasted and thus triggering the check in
init_toast_snapshot regardless of value length:
CREATE TABLE t (a text);
ALTER TABLE t ALTER COLUMN a SET STORAGE EXTERNAL;
INSERT INTO t VALUES ('toast');
BEGIN;
DECLARE c CURSOR FOR SELECT * FROM t;
FETCH ALL IN c;
