Project: Explicitly support predicate locks in index AMs besides b-tree
Hi,
During this week, I worked on predicate locking in spgist index. I think,
for spgist index, predicate lock only on leaf pages will be enough as
spgist searches can determine if there is a match or not only at leaf level.
I have done following things in this week.
1) read the source code of spgist index to understand the access method
2) found appropriate places to insert calls to existing functions
3) created tests (to verify serialization failures and to demonstrate the
feature of reduced false positives) for 'point' and 'box' data types.

I will attach the patch shortly.
Regards,
Shubham
