Clean up SQL emitted by psql/describe.c.
Fix assorted places that had not bothered with the convention of prefixing catalog and function names with "pg_catalog.". That could possibly result in query failure when running with a nondefault search_path. Also fix two places that weren't quoting OID literals. I think the latter hasn't mattered much since about 7.3, but it's still a bad idea to be doing it in 99 places and not in 2 others. Also remove a useless EXISTS sub-select that someone had stuck into describeOneTableDetails' queries for child tables. We just got the OID out of pg_class, so I hardly see how checking that it exists in pg_class was doing anything helpful. In passing, try to improve the emitted formatting of a couple of these queries, though I didn't work really hard on that. And merge unnecessarily duplicative coding in some other places. Much of this was new in HEAD, but some was quite old; back-patch as appropriate.
