This looks first like complicating RemoveRelations() or the internal
object removal APIs with a dedicated lookup at this index's pg_index
tuple, but you could just put that in index_drop when REINDEX
CONCURRENTLY is not used. Still, I am not sure if it is worth
complicating those code paths. It would be better to get more
opinions about that first.
