Fix race in SSI interaction with empty btrees.

When predicate-locking btrees, we have a special case for completely
empty btrees, since there is no page to lock.  This was racy, because,
without buffer lock held, a matching key could be inserted between the
_bt_search() and the PredicateLockRelation() calls.

Fix, by rechecking _bt_search() after taking the relation-level SIREAD
lock, if using SERIALIZABLE isolation and an empty btree is discovered.

Back-patch to all supported releases.  Fixes one aspect of bug #17949.
