ERROR: cache lookup failed for function 0
In the above test creating OP class type int2, but passing the function of int4
type. During CREATE PARTITION, ComputePartitionAttrs() able to resolve the opclass
for the partition key (partition key type is int2), but while looking for a method for the int2 - it unable to find the proper function and end up with the cache lookup failed error. Error coming from RelationBuildPartitionKey().
I think overall this is expected but still error can be better - like all the other
places where get_opfamily_proc() unable to find valid function oid.
PFA patch, where added elog() to add the error message same as all other
