I’m not sure what the general policy on locking is, but I have checked ALTER 
TABLE ADD INDEX, and the all the partitions seem to be locked on the first 
entry to DefineIndex there. All other call sites pass in the parentIndexId, 
which means the progress tracking machinery will not be initialized, so I 
think, we don’t need to do locking in count_leaf_partitions(). 

The approach in the patch looks good to me. Some nitpicks on the patch: 
1. There’s an unnecessary second call to get_rel_relkind in ProcessUtilitySlow, 
we can just use what’s in the variable relkind.
2. We can also combine else and if to have one less nested level like that:
+                               else if (!RELKIND_HAS_PARTITIONS(child_relkind))

3. There was a part of the comment saying "If the index was built by calling 
DefineIndex() recursively, the called function is responsible for updating the 
progress report for built indexes.", I think it is still useful to have it 
there.
