Replace binary search in fmgr_isbuiltin with a lookup array.

Turns out we have enough functions that the binary search is quite
noticeable in profiles.

Thus have Gen_fmgrtab.pl build a new mapping from a builtin function's
oid to an index in the existing fmgr_builtins array. That keeps the
additional memory usage at a reasonable amount.
