Rework internals of changing a type's ownership
This is necessary so that REASSIGN OWNED does the right thing with composite types, to wit, that it also alters ownership of the type's pg_class entry -- previously, the pg_class entry remained owned by the original user, which caused later other failures such as the new owner's inability to use ALTER TYPE to rename an attribute of the affected composite. Also, if the original owner is later dropped, the pg_class entry becomes owned by a non-existant user which is bogus. To fix, create a new routine AlterTypeOwner_oid which knows whether to pass the request to ATExecChangeOwner or deal with it directly, and use that in shdepReassignOwner rather than calling AlterTypeOwnerInternal directly. AlterTypeOwnerInternal is now simpler in that it only modifies the pg_type entry and recurses to handle a possible array type; higher-level tasks are handled by either AlterTypeOwner directly or AlterTypeOwner_oid. I took the opportunity to add a few more objects to the test rig for REASSIGN OWNED, so that more cases are exercised. Additional ones could be added for superuser-only-ownable objects (such as FDWs and event triggers) but I didn't want to push my luck by adding a new superuser to the tests on a backpatchable bug fix. Per bug #13666 reported by Chris Pacejo. This is a backpatch of commit 756e7b4c to branches 9.1 -- 9.4.
