Move BuildDescForRelation() from tupdesc.c to tablecmds.c
BuildDescForRelation() main job is to convert ColumnDef lists to
pg_attribute/tuple descriptor arrays, which is really mostly an
internal subroutine of DefineRelation() and some related functions,
which is more the remit of tablecmds.c and doesn't have much to do
with the basic tuple descriptor interfaces in tupdesc.c. This is also
supported by observing the header includes we can remove in tupdesc.c.
By moving it over, we can also (in the future) make
BuildDescForRelation() use more internals of tablecmds.c that are not
sensible to be exposed in tupdesc.c.
