why do we have rd_istemp?
Given "Relation rel", it looks to me like rel->rd_rel->relistemp will
always give the same answer as rel->rd_istemp. So why have both?

Might be historical --- relistemp is pretty new.

Is this a TODO or something we want to clean up?

Doesn't strike me that it's worth the amount of code that would have to
change. rd_istemp is known in a lot of places. Replacing it with a
double indirection doesn't seem attractive anyway.
