Subject: [PATCH 4/5] Fix failure of standby startup caused by tablespace
 removal

When standby restarts after a crash after drop of a tablespace,
there's a possibility that recovery fails trying an object-creation in
already removed tablespace directory. Allow recovery to continue by
ignoring the error if not reaching consistency point.
