Attached, please find a patch which standardizes the following
interface for object types that use unqualifed names.
Oid get_whatever_oid(char *name, bool missing_ok);
It also refactors the existing code to use these functions whenever
possible. I'm going to work up a similar path for the object types
that use qualified names, but I thought it would be a good idea to
send this first before I invest too much time in it.
