Improve performance of OverrideSearchPathMatchesCurrent().

This function was initially coded on the assumption that it would not be
performance-critical, but that turns out to be wrong in workloads that
are heavily dependent on the speed of plpgsql functions.  Speed it up by
hard-coding the comparison rules, thereby avoiding palloc/pfree traffic
from creating and immediately freeing an OverrideSearchPath object.
Per report from Scott Marlowe.
