Fix failure with lock mode used for custom relation options

In-core relation options can use a custom lock mode since 47167b7, that
has lowered the lock available for some autovacuum parameters.  However
it forgot to consider custom relation options.  This causes failures
with ALTER TABLE SET when changing a custom relation option, as its lock
is not defined.  The existing APIs to define a custom reloption does not
allow to define a custom lock mode, so enforce its initialization to
AccessExclusiveMode which should be safe enough in all cases.  An
upcoming patch will extend the existing APIs to allow a custom lock mode
to be defined.

The problem can be reproduced with bloom indexes, so add a test there.
