Hmm, maybe we could have AbortTransaction switch to ErrorContext, which
has some preallocated space, before calling RecordTransactionAbort (or
maybe have RecordTransactionAbort itself do it).

Seems like it'd be smarter to try to free some memory before we push
forward with transaction abort. ErrorContext has only a limited amount
of space ...
