Here's a v22. Beyond a rebase, the only real difference is some cleanup
in the test cases.

I've left this as-is for now. I considered emitting this statement as a
LOG for autovacuum, but I'm not sure there is terribly much value in
having autovacuum explain that it is skipping a relation because it was
concurrently dropped. Perhaps this is something we should emit at a
DEBUG level. What do you think?
