Arrange for the pg_foo_is_visible and has_foo_privilege families of functions

to return NULL, instead of erroring out, if the target object is specified by
OID and we can't find that OID in the catalogs.  Since these functions operate
internally on SnapshotNow rules, there is a race condition when using them
in user queries: the query's MVCC snapshot might "see" a catalog row that's
already committed dead, leading to a failure when the inquiry function is
applied.  Returning NULL should generally provide more convenient behavior.
This issue has been complained of before, and in particular we are now seeing
it in the regression tests due to another recent patch.

* Export the FooIsVisible functions as SQL-callable functions.

* Note: as of Postgres 8.4, these will silently return NULL if called on
* a nonexistent object OID, rather than failing. This is to avoid race
* condition errors when a query that's scanning a catalog using an MVCC
* snapshot uses one of these functions. The underlying IsVisible functions
* operate on SnapshotNow semantics and so might see the object as already
* gone when it's still visible to the MVCC snapshot. (There is no race
* condition in the current coding because we don't accept sinval messages
* between the SearchSysCacheExists test and the subsequent lookup.)
