I looked at this bug report from September.  The problem is that
LookupExplicitNamespace() doesn't have a missing_ok parameter, even
though get_namespace_oid(), which it calls, does.  By adding a
missing_ok parameter and passing it cleanly, I fixed the problem:

    test=> DROP TABLE IF EXISTS foo.bar;
    NOTICE:  table "bar" does not exist, skipping
    DROP TABLE

Patch attached.

That makes it a HEAD only fix though. I personally don't have a problem
with that, but others might...

This turns an error into a notice/success.  I don't think we would ever
backpatch such a behavioral change.  I realize that nothing changes
either way in the database, but applications checking for return status
might care about it.
