Avoid reporting "cache lookup failed" for some user-reachable cases.
We have a not-terribly-thoroughly-enforced-yet project policy that internal errors with SQLSTATE XX000 (ie, plain elog) should not be triggerable from SQL. record_in, domain_in, and PL validator functions all failed to meet this standard, because they threw plain elog("cache lookup failed for XXX") errors on bad OIDs, and those are all invokable from SQL. For record_in, the best fix is to upgrade typcache.c (lookup_type_cache) to throw a user-facing error for this case. That seems consistent because it was more than halfway there already, having user-facing errors for shell types and non-composite types. Having done that, tweak domain_in to rely on the typcache to throw an appropriate error. (This costs little because InitDomainConstraintRef would fetch the typcache entry anyway.) For the PL validator functions, we already have a single choke point at CheckFunctionValidatorAccess, so just fix its error to be user-facing.
