Add pg_sequences view
Like pg_tables, pg_views, and others, this view contains information
about sequences in a way that is independent of the system catalog
layout but more comprehensive than the information schema.
To help implement the view, add a new internal function
pg_sequence_last_value() to return the last value of a sequence. This
is kept separate from pg_sequence_parameters() to separate querying
run-time state from catalog-like information.
