Fix regrole and regnamespace types to honor quoting like other reg* types.
Aside from any consistency arguments, this is logically necessary because
the I/O functions for these types also handle numeric OID values. Without
a quoting rule it is impossible to distinguish numeric OIDs from role or
namespace names that happen to contain only digits.
Also change the to_regrole and to_regnamespace functions to dequote their
arguments. While not logically essential, this seems like a good idea
since the other to_reg* functions do it. Anyone who really wants raw
lookup of an uninterpreted name can fall back on the time-honored solution
of (SELECT oid FROM pg_namespace WHERE nspname = whatever).
