Ah, and here I thought that this was also returning NULL.  My previous
work in this area only focused on the object OIDs, not their classes.
At the end, I'm OK to keep your patch as it is, checking only for the
case of pinned dependencies in pg_depend as we do for
pg_describe_object().

It's still a bit confusing, but we've been living with that for years
now without anybody complaining except me, so perhaps that's fine at
the end to keep that as this is still useful.  If we change that,
applying the same rules across the board would make the most sense.
