All callers of FindConversionByName() already do suitable permissions
checking already apart from this function, but this is not just dead
code removal: the unnecessary permissions check can actually lead to
spurious failures - there's no reason why inability to execute the
underlying function should prohibit renaming the conversion, for example.
(The error messages in these cases were also rather poor:
FindConversion would return InvalidOid, eventually leading to a complaint
that the conversion "did not exist", which was not correct.)

objects are specified, we drop them all in a single performMultipleDeletions
call. This makes the RESTRICT/CASCADE checks more relaxed: it's not counted
as a cascade if one of the later objects has a dependency on an earlier one.
NOTICE messages about such cases go away, too.
In passing, fix the permissions check for DROP CONVERSION, which for some
reason was never made role-aware, and omitted the namespace-owner exemption
too.

inclusions in src/include/catalog/*.h files. The main idea here is to push
function declarations for src/backend/catalog/*.c files into separate headers,
rather than sticking them into the corresponding catalog definition file as
has been done in the past. This commit only carries out that idea fully for
pg_proc, pg_type and pg_conversion, but that's enough for the moment ---
if pg_list.h ever becomes unsafe for frontend code to include, we'll need
to work a bit more.
