Add lock matrix to documentation.
This needs some revisions. The table needs to be mentioned somewhere
in the
text, so the reader knows when or why to refer to it. Also, the cryptic
abbreviations need to be expanded or explained. And then the concept of
lock "compatibility", as the table puts it, is not used anywhere else
in the
documentation. The table should be put in terms of conflicts instead.
Another version with expanded abbreviations is
http://mira.sai.msu.su/~megera/pgsql/lockmatrix/c2.html, if remove
UPDATE EXCLUSIVE.
While compatibility matrix is a commonly accepted termin, I agree,
that using conficts would be better in context of our docs.
If UE is moved 2 or 3 places down/right, the matrix will be closer to
triangular.
It would look better with non-conflicts being blank (or in HTML)
rather than 'O', I think - the conflicts will stand out more.
cheers
