Commit d4a657b0a4 added a call to has_sequence_privilege() while
fetching sequence information from the publisher, so that
publisher-side permission failures could be distinguished from missing
sequences. It also assumed that has_sequence_privilege() could never
return NULL, and asserted accordingly.
However, that assumption was incorrect. If a sequence is dropped after
the synchronization worker collects its metadata but while fetching the
sequence information, has_sequence_privilege() can return NULL.
This can trigger the assertion failure. This was also reported in
a buildfarm failure on member culicidae.
Fix this by treating a NULL result from has_sequence_privilege() as
indicating that the sequence was dropped concurrently, and report it as
a missing sequence instead of asserting that the result is never NULL.
