Alvaro Herrera 4dff8935fb Fix creation of duplicate foreign keys on partitions
When creating a foreign key in a partitioned table, if some partitions
already have equivalent constraints, we wastefully create duplicates of
the constraints instead of attaching to the existing ones.  That's
inconsistent with the de-duplication that is applied when a table is
attached as a partition.  To fix, reuse the FK-cloning code instead of
having a separate code path.

Backpatch to Postgres 11.  This is a subtle behavior change, but surely
a welcome one since there's no use in having duplicate foreign keys.

Discovered by Álvaro Herrera while thinking about a different problem
reported by Jesper Pedersen (bug #15587).

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
