Allow new relmapper entries when allow_system_table_mods is true.

Allow new relmapper entries when allow_system_table_mods is true. This restores the pre-9.0 situation that it's possible to add new indexes on pg_class and other mapped-but-not-shared catalogs, so long as you broke the glass and flipped the big red Dont-Touch-Me switch. As before, there are a lot of gotchas, and you'd have to be pretty desperate to try this on a production database; but there doesn't seem to be a reason for relmapper.c to be preventing such things all by itself. Per experimentation with a case suggested by Cody Cutrer.
