There are tests for both the function and the handler based on
finfo->dobj.namespace->dump that inhibit output if we're in the catalog
schema.

If we go down this path ISTM the simplest thing would be to add a field
to the FuncInfo object to allow it to be marked as a a handler/validator.

Also, I think pg_dump *never* quotes the handler name or qualifies it
with a schema name - that looks like it might be a bug, regardless of this.
