The failing query seems to be a foreign-key enforcement check that
happened to be triggered from COPY.  Those are run as the owner of
the table that is being checked.  So it appears that in

pg_restore: error: COPY failed for table "batch_rp4_y2022m08": ERROR: permission denied for schema tapschema
LINE 1: SELECT 1 FROM ONLY "tapschema"."lockbox" x WHERE "lockbox_id...
                           ^
QUERY:  SELECT 1 FROM ONLY "tapschema"."lockbox" x WHERE "lockbox_id" OPERATOR(pg_catalog.=) $1 FOR KEY SHARE OF x

the owner of table "lockbox" lacks usage permission on the containing
schema "tapschema".  That's a most bizarre situation and would have
caused the same sort of FK failures in the originating database as
well.  pg_dump can't really promise to restore databases containing
arbitrarily-broken permissions settings.
