Use LW_SHARED in walsummarizer.c for WALSummarizerLock lock where possible. Previously, we used LW_EXCLUSIVE in several places despite only reading WalSummarizerCtl fields. This patch reduces the lock level to LW_SHARED where we are only reading the shared fields. Backpatch to 17, where wal summarization was introduced.
