Allow pg_{read,write}_all_data to access large objects.

Since the initial goal of pg_read_all_data was to be able to run
pg_dump as a non-superuser without explicitly granting access to
every object, it follows that it should allow reading all large
objects.  For consistency, pg_write_all_data should allow writing
all large objects, too.
