Fix rare core dump in BackendIdGetTransactionIds().
Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>
Fix rare core dump in BackendIdGetTransactionIds(). BackendIdGetTransactionIds() neglected the possibility that the PROC pointer in a ProcState array entry is null. In current usage, this could only crash if the other backend had exited since pgstat_read_current_status saw it as active, which is a pretty narrow window. But it's reachable in the field, per bug #12918 from Vladimir Borodin. Back-patch to 9.4 where the faulty code was introduced.
