ReindexRelationConcurrently() issues a WARNING when bumping on an
invalid index, shouldn't the same log level be used?

Even with this patch, it is possible to reindex an invalid toast index
with REINDEX INDEX (with and without CONCURRENTLY), which is the
problem I mentioned upthread (Er, actually only for the non-concurrent
case as told about reindex_index).  Shouldn't both cases be prevented
as well with an ERROR?
