Save a few bytes per CatCTup.

CatalogCacheCreateEntry() computed the space needed for a CatCTup
as sizeof(CatCTup) + MAXIMUM_ALIGNOF.  That's not our usual style,
and it wastes memory by allocating more padding than necessary.
On 64-bit machines sizeof(CatCTup) would be maxaligned already
since it contains pointer fields, therefore this code is wasting
8 bytes compared to the more usual MAXALIGN(sizeof(CatCTup)).

While at it, we don't really need to do MemoryContextSwitchTo()
when we're only allocating one block.
