Here is a new version of the patch that I think is ready for commit (except
it still needs a catversion bump). The only real difference from v1 is in
AdjustUpgrade.pm. From my cross-version pg_upgrade testing, I believe we
can remove the other "privilege-set discrepancy" rule as well.

Since MAINTAIN will no longer exist in v16, we'll also need the following
change applied to v17devel:

diff --git a/src/test/perl/PostgreSQL/Test/AdjustUpgrade.pm b/src/test/perl/PostgreSQL/Test/AdjustUpgrade.pm

Since we are only reverting from v16, the REL_16_STABLE catversion will be
bumped ahead of the one on master. AFAICT that is okay, but there is also
a chance that someone bumps the catversion on master to the same value.
I'm not sure if this is problem is worth worrying about, but I thought I'd
raise it just in case. I could bump the catversion on master to the
following value to help prevent this scenario, but I'm not wild about
adding unnecessary catversion bumps.
