+            indexRel = index_open(indexoid, RowExclusiveLock);

Can we use AccessShareLock here, instead?

+            if (indexStruct->indisunique &&
+                IndexIsValid(indexStruct) &&
+                RelationGetIndexExpressions(indexRel) == NIL &&
+                RelationGetIndexPredicate(indexRel) == NIL)
+                hasUniqueIndex = true;
+
+            index_close(indexRel, RowExclusiveLock);

In the case where hasUniqueIndex = true, ISTM that we can get out of
the loop immediately just after calling index_close(). No?

+    /* Must have at least one unique index */
+    Assert(foundUniqueIndex);

Can we guarantee that there is at least one valid unique index here?
If yes, it's better to write the comment about that.
