I'm starting to review this now.  It strikes me that while we are at it,
we should get rid of the useless pg_class columns relukeys, relfkeys,
and relrefs.  These haven't been maintained since Berkeley days, and
this patch puts the final kibosh on any thought that we'd ever start
to maintain relukeys and relfkeys counts.

Any objections?
