Introduce new extended routines for FDW and foreign server lookups
The cache lookup routines for foreign-data wrappers and foreign servers
are extended with an extra argument to handle a set of flags. The only
value which can be used now is to indicate if a missing object should
result in an error or not, and are designed to be extensible on need.
Those new routines are added into the existing set of user-visible
FDW APIs and documented in consequence. They will be used for future
patches to improve the SQL interface for object addresses.
