Hmm, yeah, pg_operator.h defines a lot of operator OIDs.  I think
including htup.h wouldn't be terribly problematic nowadays, actually.
But I can get behind a plan to move CreateOperator to the new file as
well, and get rid of objectaddress.h and pglist.h from pg_operator.h.

I wonder if a note to packagers to inform them of the new file added
after the RC would be a good idea.
