Hi! I noticed you do not bump catalog version here, so i was a little
confused with
```
reshke=# SELECT name, library, function FROM pg_get_injection_points();
ERROR: function pg_get_injection_points() does not exist
```
for a while
Also, should we define pg_get_injection_points in the injection_points
extension maybe?
