Fix two problems in infer_arbiter_indexes().

The first is a pretty simple bug where a relcache entry is used after
the relation is closed. In this particular situation it does not appear
to have bad consequences unless compiled with RELCACHE_FORCE_RELEASE.

The second is that infer_arbiter_indexes() skipped indexes that aren't
yet valid according to indcheckxmin. That's not required here, because
uniqueness checks don't care about visibility according to an older
snapshot.  While thats not really a bug, it makes things undesirably
non-deterministic.  There is some hope that this explains a test failure
on buildfarm member jaguarundi.
