Ah, I see. I used your suggestion.

I applied the bug fixes. Our tools and contrib modules will always use
pg_largeobject_metadata instead of pg_largeobject to enumerate large objects.

I removed "GRANT SELECT (loid) ON pg_largeobject TO PUBLIC" from initdb
because users must use pg_largeobject_metadata.oid when they want to check
OIDs of large objects; If not, they could misjudge the existence of objects.
This is an unavoidable incompatibility unless we always have corresponding
tuples in pg_largeobject even for zero-length large objects.
