This adds support for SERIAL/BIGSERIAL column types. Because we now can
evaluate functions on the master (during execution), adding this is a
matter of ensuring the table creation step works properly.
To accomplish this, I've added some logic to detect sequences owned by
a table (i.e. those related to its columns). Simply creating a sequence
and using it in a default value is insufficient; users who do so must
ensure the sequence is owned by the column using it.
Fortunately, this is exactly what SERIAL and BIGSERIAL do, which is the
use case we're targeting with this feature. While testing this, I found
that worker_apply_shard_ddl_command actually adds shard identifiers to
sequence names, though I found no places that use or test this path. I
removed that code so that sequence names are not mutated and will match
those used by a SERIAL default value expression.
Our use of the new-to-9.5 CREATE SEQUENCE IF NOT EXISTS syntax means we
are dropping support for 9.4 (which is being done regardless, but makes
this change simpler). I've removed 9.4 from the Travis build matrix.
Some edge cases are possible in ALTER SEQUENCE, COPY FROM (on workers),
and CREATE SEQUENCE OWNED BY. I've added errors for each so that users
understand when and why certain operations are prohibited.

To add schema support to citus, we need to schema-prefix all table names, object names etc.
in the queries sent to worker nodes. However; query deparsing is not available for most of
DDL commands, therefore it is not easy to generate worker query in the master node.
As a solution we are sending schema names along with shard id and query to run to worker
nodes with worker_apply_shard_ddl_command.
To not break \STAGE command we pass public schema as paramater while calling
worker_apply_shard_ddl_command from there. This will not cause problem if user uses \STAGE
in different schema because passes schema name is used only if there is no schema name is
given in the query.
After this change, shards and associated metadata are automatically
dropped when running DROP TABLE on a distributed table, which fixes#230.
It also adds schema support for master_apply_delete_command, which
fixes#73.
Dropping the shards happens in the master_drop_all_shards UDF, which is
called from the SQL_DROP trigger. Inside the trigger, the table is no
longer visible and calling master_apply_delete_command directly wouldn't
work and oid <-> name mappings are not available. The
master_drop_all_shards function therefore takes the relation id, schema
name, and table name as parameters, which can be obtained from
pg_event_trigger_dropped_objects() in the SQL_DROP trigger. If the user
calls master_drop_all_shards while the table still exists, the schema
name and table name are ignored.
