I don't think that creating such a dependency is acceptable.
Even if we didn't mind the dependency, you said yourself that
contrib/postgresql_fdw's validator will accept stuff that's not
appropriate for dblink.
If we don't think postgresql_fdw_validator belongs in core after all,
we should just move it to dblink.
