Remove old RULE privilege completely.

The RULE privilege for tables was removed in v8.2, but for backward
compatibility, GRANT/REVOKE and privilege functions like
has_table_privilege continued to accept the RULE keyword without
any effect.

After discussions on pgsql-hackers, it was agreed that this compatibility
is no longer needed. Since it's been long enough since the deprecation,
we've decided to fully remove support for RULE privilege,
so GRANT/REVOKE and privilege functions will no longer accept it.
