Optimize update of tables with generated columns

Browse Source 
When updating a table row with generated columns, only recompute those
generated columns whose base columns have changed in this update and
keep the rest unchanged.  This can result in a significant performance
benefit.  The required information was already kept in
RangeTblEntry.extraUpdatedCols; we just have to make use of it.
