use SQL standard error code for nextval
The SQL standard defines a separate error code for nextval exhausting
the sequence space. I haven't found any discussion of this in the
archives, so it seems this was just not considered or not yet in
existence when the error codes were introduced. Here is a patch to
correct it.

Perhaps you should add something to the release notes. Somebody could be
testing for the old error code.

The release notes will be written when the release is prepared.

The release notes for v10 aren't going to be drafted for months yet.
When they are, hopefully the writer will notice that this should be
listed as an incompatible change. That's not the responsibility
of this commit, although it would've been better if the commit log
entry explicitly pointed out that it's an incompatible change.
