Re: [v9.2] DROP Reworks Part.1 - Consolidate routines to handle DropStmt

The attached patch is rebased one to consolidate routines to remove objects
using the revised get_object_address().

The new RemoveObjects() replaces the following routines; having
similar structure.
 - RemoveRelations
 - RemoveTypes
 - DropCollationsCommand
 - DropConversionsCommand
 - RemoveSchemas
 - RemoveTSParsers
 - RemoveTSDictionaries
 - RemoveTSTemplates
 - RemoveTSConfigurations
 - RemoveExtensions

I guess the most arguable part of this patch is modifications to
get_relation_by_qualified_name().

This patch breaks down the relation_openrv_extended() into
a pair of RangeVarGetRelid() and relation_open() to inject
LockRelationOid() between them, because index_drop() logic
requires the table owning the target index to be locked prior to
the index itself.

Thanks,
