Use a more granular approach to follow update chains

alvherre · alvherre · commit 247c76a98909 · 2013-11-28T12:00:12.000-03:00
Instead of simply checking the KEYS_UPDATED bit, we need to check
whether each lock held on the future version of the tuple conflicts with
the lock we're trying to acquire.
