Here's the v4 patch reabsed on the latest master, please review it further.

RelationIsPermanent(), RelationUsesLocalBuffers(), and
targetrel->rd_rel->relpersistence all refers to relpersistence. Hence, it is
not necessary to test !RelationIsPermanent().
I would slightly rewrite the commit message to something like:
Improve publication error messages
Adding a foreign table into a publication prints an error saying "foo is not a
table". Although, a foreign table is not a regular table, this message could
possibly confuse users. Provide a suitable error message according to the
object class (table vs foreign table). While at it, separate unlogged/temp
table error message into 2 messages.
