Change currtid functions to use an MVCC snapshot, not SnapshotNow.

This has a slight performance cost, but the only known consumers
of these functions, known at the SQL level as currtid and currtid2,
is pgsql-odbc; whose usage, we hope, is not sufficiently intensive
to make this a problem.

Per discussion.
