Reset indisreplident for an invalid index in DROP INDEX CONCURRENTLY 

A failure when dropping concurrently an index used in a replica identity
could leave in pg_index an index marked as !indisvalid and
indisreplident.  Reindexing this index would switch back indisvalid to
true, and if the replica identity of the parent relation was switched to
use a different index, it would be possible to finish with more than one
index marked as indisreplident.  If that were to happen, this could mess
up with the relation cache as an incorrect index could be used for the
replica identity.

Indexes marked as invalid are discarded as candidates for the replica
identity, as of RelationGetIndexList(), so similarly to what is done
with indisclustered, resetting indisreplident when the index is marked
as invalid keeps things consistent.  REINDEX CONCURRENTLY's swapping
already resets the flag for the old index, while the new index inherits
the value of the old index to-be-dropped, so only DROP INDEX was an
issue.

Even if this is a bug, the sequence able to reproduce a problem requires
a failure while running DROP INDEX CONCURRENTLY, something unlikely
going to happen in the field, so no backpatch is done.
