Log message:
        Try to reduce confusion about what is a lock method identifier, a lock
        method control structure, or a table of control structures.
        
        . Use type LOCKMASK where an int is not a counter.
        
        . Get rid of INVALID_TABLEID, use INVALID_LOCKMETHOD instead.
        
        . Use INVALID_LOCKMETHOD instead of (LOCKMETHOD) NULL, because
        LOCKMETHOD is not a pointer.
        
        . Define and use macro LockMethodIsValid.
        
        . Rename LOCKMETHOD to LOCKMETHODID.
        
        . Remove global variable LongTermTableId in lmgr.c, because it is
        never used.
        
        . Make LockTableId static in lmgr.c, because it is used nowhere else.
        Why not remove it and use DEFAULT_LOCKMETHOD?
        
        . Rename the lock method control structure from LOCKMETHODTABLE to
        LockMethodData.  Introduce a pointer type named LockMethod.
        
        . Remove elog(FATAL) after InitLockTable() call in
        CreateSharedMemoryAndSemaphores(), because if something goes wrong,
        there is elog(FATAL) in LockMethodTableInit(), and if this doesn't
        help, an elog(ERROR) in InitLockTable() is promoted to FATAL.
        
        . Make InitLockTable() void, because its only caller does not use its
        return value any more.
        
        . Rename variables in lock.c to avoid statements like
        LockMethodTable[NumLockMethods] = lockMethodTable;
        lockMethodTable = LockMethodTable[lockmethod];
        
        . Change LOCKMETHODID type to uint16 to fit into struct LOCKTAG.
        
        . Remove static variables BITS_OFF and BITS_ON from lock.c, because
        I agree to this doubt:
        * XXX is a fetch from a static array really faster than a shift?
        
        . Define and use macros LOCKBIT_ON/OFF.
