Don't try to re-order the subcommands of CREATE SCHEMA.
transformCreateSchemaStmtElements has always believed that it is
supposed to re-order the subcommands of CREATE SCHEMA into a safe
execution order. However, it is nowhere near being capable of doing
that correctly. Nor is there reason to think that it ever will be,
or that that is a well-defined requirement. (The SQL standard does
say that it should be possible to do foreign-key forward references
within CREATE SCHEMA, but it's not clear that the text requires
anything more than that.) Moreover, the problem will get worse as
we add more subcommand types. Let's just drop the whole idea and
execute the commands in the order given, which seems like a much
less astonishment-prone definition anyway. The foreign-key issue
will be handled in a follow-up patch.
This will result in a release-note-worthy incompatibility,
which is that forward references like
CREATE SCHEMA myschema
CREATE VIEW myview AS SELECT * FROM mytable
CREATE TABLE mytable (...);
used to work and no longer will. Considering how many closely
related variants never worked, this isn't much of a loss.
Along the way, pass down a ParseState so that we can provide an
error cursor for "wrong schema name" and related errors, and fix
transformCreateSchemaStmtElements so that it doesn't scribble
on the parsetree passed to it.
