Reduce chatter from signaling of autovacuum workers.
Don't print a WARNING if we get ESRCH from a kill() that's attempting to cancel an autovacuum worker. It's possible (and has been seen in the buildfarm) that the worker is already gone by the time we are able to execute the kill, in which case the failure is harmless. About the only plausible reason for reporting such cases would be to help debug corrupted lock table contents, but this is hardly likely to be the most important symptom if that happens. Moreover issuing a WARNING might scare users more than is warranted. Also, since sending a signal to an autovacuum worker is now entirely a routine thing, and the worker will log the query cancel on its end anyway, reduce the message saying we're doing that from LOG to DEBUG1 level. Very minor cosmetic cleanup as well. Since the main practical reason for doing this is to avoid unnecessary buildfarm failures, back-patch to all active branches.
