When attempting to move an object into the schema in which it already
was, for most objects classes we were correctly complaining about
exactly that ("object is already in schema"); but for some other object
classes, such as functions, we were instead complaining of a name
collision ("object already exists in schema"). The latter is wrong and
misleading, per complaint from Robert Haas in

To fix, refactor the way these checks are done. As a bonus, the
resulting code is smaller and can also share some code with Rename
cases.
While at it, remove use of getObjectDescriptionOids() in error messages.
These are normally disallowed because of translatability considerations,
but this one had slipped through since 9.1. (Not sure that this is
worth backpatching, though, as it would create some untranslated
messages in back branches.)
This is loosely based on a patch by KaiGai Kohei, heavily reworked by
me.
Extracted from a larger patch by Dimitri Fontaine. It is hoped that
this will provide infrastructure for enriching the new event trigger
functionality, but it seems possibly useful for other purposes as
well.
In its original conception, it was leaving some objects into the old
schema, but without their proper pg_depend entries; this meant that the
old schema could be dropped, causing future pg_dump calls to fail on the
affected database. This was originally reported by Jeff Frost as #6704;
there have been other complaints elsewhere that can probably be traced
to this bug.
To fix, be more consistent about altering a table's subsidiary objects
along the table itself; this requires some restructuring in how tables
are relocated when altering an extension -- hence the new
AlterTableNamespaceInternal routine which encapsulates it for both the
ALTER TABLE and the ALTER EXTENSION cases.
There was another bug lurking here, which was unmasked after fixing the
previous one: certain objects would be reached twice via the dependency
graph, and the second attempt to move them would cause the entire
operation to fail. Per discussion, it seems the best fix for this is to
do more careful tracking of objects already moved: we now maintain a
list of moved objects, to avoid attempting to do it twice for the same
object.

Remove duplicate implementation of catalog munging and miscellaneous
privilege and consistency checks. Instead rely on already existing data
in objectaddress.c to do the work.

Instead of having each object type implement the catalog munging
independently, centralize knowledge about how to do it and expand the
existing table in objectaddress.c with enough data about each object
type to support this operation.

This patch adds the server infrastructure to support extensions.
There is still one significant loose end, namely how to make it play nice
with pg_upgrade, so I am not yet committing the changes that would make
all the contrib modules depend on this feature.
In passing, fix a disturbingly large amount of breakage in
AlterObjectNamespace() and callers.

This adds support for changing the schema of a conversion, operator,
operator class, operator family, text search configuration, text search
dictionary, text search parser, or text search template.

Also performed an initial run through of upgrading our Copyright date to

where: grep 1996-2004 && the word 'Copyright' ... scanned through the
generated list with 'less' first, and after, to make sure that I only
picked up the right entries ...
