Thanks. Please find attached a rebased patch, v6. I think it's looking
more like what you would expect now:

Only when event triggers are in use, and when the object is known to
exists in the catalogs (ddl_command_start for a DROP operation, or
ddl_command_end for a CREATE or ALTER operation). And it's only a name
resolution using the catcache when it exists, or a catalog index scan
when we have to. The key we have is the OID.
The OID is filled in from utility.c in all CREATE and ALTER operations
that we are interested into, and in the case of a DROP operation we do
either a RangeVarGetRelid for relations or get_object_address() for the
other object kinds.
Given the OID, we use the ObjectProperty[] structure to know which cache
or catalog to scan in order to get the name and namespace of the object.
