Add a comment explaining dropdb() can't rely on syscache. The issue with flattened rows was fixed by commit 0f92b230f88b, but better to have a clear explanation why the systable scan is necessary. The other places doing in-place updates on pg_database have the same comment. Suggestion and patch by Yugo Nagata. Backpatch to 12, same as the fix.
