Refactor broken CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS support.
Per bug #5988, reported by Marko Tiikkaja, and further analyzed by Tom Lane, the previous coding was broken in several respects: even if the target table already existed, a subsequent CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS might try to add additional constraints or sequences-for-serial specified in the new CREATE TABLE statement. In passing, this also fixes a minor information leak: it's no longer possible to figure out whether a schema to which you don't have CREATE access contains a sequence named like "x_y_seq" by attempting to create a table in that schema called "x" with a serial column called "y". Some more refactoring of this code in the future might be warranted, but that will need to wait for a later major release.
