Check CREATE privilege on multirange type schema in CREATE TYPE.

This omission allowed roles to create multirange types in any
schema, potentially leading to privilege escalations. Note that
when a multirange type name is not specified in CREATE TYPE, it is
automatically placed in the range type's schema, which is checked
at the beginning of DefineRange().
