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/.
