Avoid crash in rare case of concurrent DROP
When a role being dropped contains is referenced by catalog objects that
are concurrently also being dropped, a crash can result while trying to
construct the string that describes the objects.  Suppress that by
ignoring objects whose descriptions are returned as NULL.

The majority of relevant codesites were already cautious about this
already; we had just missed a couple.

This is an old bug, so backpatch all the way back.

=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.
