Prevent pgstats from getting confused when relkind of a relation changes
When the relkind of a relache entry changes, because a table is converted into a view, pgstats can get confused in 15+, leading to crashes or assertion failures. For HEAD, Tom fixed this in b23cd185fd5, by removing support for converting a table to a view, removing the source of the inconsistency. This commit just adds an assertion that a relcache entry's relkind does not change, just in case we end up with another case of that in the future. As there's no cases of changing relkind anymore, we can't add a test that that's handled correctly. For 15, fix the problem by not maintaining the association with the old pgstat entry when the relkind changes during a relcache invalidation processing. In that case the pgstat entry needs to be unlinked first, to avoid PgStat_TableStatus->relation getting out of sync. Also add a test reproducing the issues. No known problem exists in 11-14, so just add the test there.
