Okay, I'll refactor that function.

If we don't have filter_by_relid, we would end up not filtering
anything if users pass 0 (InvalidOid) as the target_relid to the new
pg_get_publication_tables(). This is the same as the behavior of the
existing pg_get_publication_tables(), so I'm concerned that it could
be confusing that the function behaves the same even though passing
different arguments . We can check whether the given target_relid is
valid in pg_get_publication_b() but we would end up checking it
multiple times unnecessarily.
