Refuse RI fast-path row locks in read-only transactions

The SPI path checks a foreign key with SELECT ... FOR KEY SHARE, which
ExecCheckXactReadOnly() refuses in a read-only transaction unless the
referenced table is temporary.  The fast path locks the referenced row
without that check, so for example a deferred check that fires at
COMMIT after SET TRANSACTION READ ONLY succeeded, having locked a row
in a read-only transaction, where the SPI path fails with "cannot
execute SELECT FOR KEY SHARE in a read-only transaction".

Fix the fast path to refuse it the same way so the behavior matches
with checks going through SPI.
