 *    Low-level catalog cache definitions.
 *
 * NOTE: every catalog cache must have a corresponding unique index on
 * the system table that it caches --- ie, the index must match the keys
 * used to do lookups in this cache.  All cache fetches are done with
 * indexscans (under normal conditions).  The index should be unique to
 * guarantee that there can only be one matching row for a key combination.
