There was something that was itching me a little bit here: shouldn't
we also switch the AM dependency of the second relation?  In the
context of a table rewrite, the new relation is temporary and quickly
dropped after the relation files are swapped, but that may not be the
case of all the callers of swap_relation_files() depending on the
persistency of what they swap and what they want to do.

Thoughts?
