I agree with that.But, probably its good idea to add this feature as many
people are migrating from oracle to postgres. clone/restore schemas to existing
cluster for any test cases like sandbox schema, temp schema as live backup
schema etc.

Currently this is not something can do. this functionality is there in oracle.
Is this future considering to add? (it would really help for create any test

I find this to be not all that useful. Current practice is to avoid relying on
search_path and, in general, to schema-qualify object references (yes,
attaching a local SET search_path to a function works, not sure how it would
play out in this context). Performing a dependency and contextual rename of
one schema name to another is challenging given all of that, and impossible if
the schema name is hard-coded into a function body.
I won't say we wouldn't accept such a patch, but as this isn't exactly a new
problem or realization, and the feature doesn't presently exist, that for
whatever reasons individuals may have no one has chosen to volunteer or fund
such development. I don't even remember seeing a proposal in the past 5 or so
years.
