Make pg_replication_origin_drop safe against concurrent drops.

Currently, we get the origin id from the name and then drop the origin by
taking ExclusiveLock on ReplicationOriginRelationId. So, two concurrent
sessions can get the id from the name at the same time and then when they
try to drop the origin, one of the sessions will get the either
"tuple concurrently deleted" or "cache lookup failed for replication
origin ..".

To prevent this race condition we do the entire operation under lock. This
obviates the need for replorigin_drop() API and we have removed it so if
any extension authors are using it they need to instead use
replorigin_drop_by_name. See it's usage in pg_replication_origin_drop().
