Unpin buffer before inplace update waits for an XID to end.

Commit a07e03fd8fa7daf4d1356f7cb501ffe784ea6257 changed inplace updates
to wait for heap_update() commands like GRANT TABLE and GRANT DATABASE.
By keeping the pin during that wait, a sequence of autovacuum workers
and an uncommitted GRANT starved one foreground LockBufferForCleanup()
for six minutes, on buildfarm member sarus.  Prevent, at the cost of a
bit of complexity.  Back-patch to v12, like the earlier commit.  That
commit and heap_inplace_lock() have not yet appeared in any release.
