Refine our definition of what constitutes a system relation. 

Although user-defined relations can't be directly created in
pg_catalog, it's possible for them to end up there, because you can
create them in some other schema and then use ALTER TABLE .. SET SCHEMA
to move them there.  Previously, such relations couldn't afterwards
be manipulated, because IsSystemRelation()/IsSystemClass() rejected
all attempts to modify objects in the pg_catalog schema, regardless
of their origin.  With this patch, they now reject only those
objects in pg_catalog which were created at initdb-time, allowing
most operations on user-created tables in pg_catalog to proceed
normally.

This patch also adds new functions IsCatalogRelation() and
IsCatalogClass(), which is similar to IsSystemRelation() and
IsSystemClass() but with a slightly narrower definition: only TOAST
tables of system catalogs are included, rather than *all* TOAST tables.
This is currently used only for making decisions about when
invalidation messages need to be sent, but upcoming logical decoding
patches will find other uses for this information.

Andres Freund, with some modifications by me.
