I couldn't find anything in copy.sgml that seemed to need adjustment.
It already says

    If row-level security is enabled for the table, the relevant SELECT
    policies will apply to COPY table TO statements.

Together with the already-mentioned

    COPY table TO copies the same rows as SELECT * FROM ONLY table.

I'd say that the behavior is very clearly specified already.  We just
need to make the code do what the docs say.  So I pushed the patch
without any docs changes.  I did add a test case, because I don't
like back-patching without something that proves that the issue is
relevant to, and corrected in, each branch.
