Log message:
    Upgrade ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN so that it can drop an OID column, and
    remove separate implementation of ALTER TABLE SET WITHOUT OIDS in favor
    of doing a regular DROP.  Also, cause CREATE TABLE to account completely
    correctly for the inheritance status of the OID column.  This fixes
    problems with dropping OID columns that have dependencies, as noted by
    Christopher Kings-Lynne, as well as making sure that you can't drop an
    OID column that was inherited from a parent.
