Okay, so are we okay to back-patch something like v1?  Or should we also
return NULL for other sessions' temporary schemas on primaries?  That would
change the condition to something like

        char relpersist = seqrel->rd_rel->relpersistence;

        if (relpersist == RELPERSISTENCE_PERMANENT ||
                (relpersist == RELPERSISTENCE_UNLOGGED && 
!RecoveryInProgress()) ||
                !RELATION_IS_OTHER_TEMP(seqrel))
        {
                ...
        }

I personally think that would be fine to back-patch since pg_sequences
already filters it out anyway.
