I think we can use a shmem hash table to identify the GID by name during
LockGxact and avoid duplicates during prepare. Hashing on the first 16
bytes of the GID should be sufficient in most cases; the worst case would
be the same as it is now, all depending on how people use the GID name
field. The hash value can be calculated outside of the lock. We can also
partition the lock without risk, just adds a little extra code.

We can also optimize final removal (sketch of how to do that attached).
