Avoid useless palloc during transaction commit

We can allocate the initial relations-to-drop array when first needed,
instead of at function entry; this avoids allocating it when the
function is not going to do anything, which is most of the time.

Backpatch to 9.3, where this behavior was introduced by commit
279628a0a7.

There's more that could be done here, such as possible reworking of the
code to avoid having to palloc anything, but that doesn't sound as
backpatchable as this relatively minor change.
