Bug reference:      18517
Logged by:          Alexander Lakhin
Email address:      exclusion@gmail.com
PostgreSQL version: 17beta1
Operating system:   Ubuntu 22.04
Description:

The following script:
CREATE TABLE pkt (id int PRIMARY KEY);
CREATE TABLE fkt (id int PRIMARY KEY, fk int REFERENCES pkt INITIALLY
DEFERRED);
INSERT INTO pkt VALUES (1);
BEGIN;
INSERT INTO fkt VALUES (101, 1);

DROP TABLE pkt CASCADE;
COMMIT;

fails on commit with a weird error:
ERROR:  relation 16390 has no triggers

afterTriggerInvokeEvents() coding is:

                 * So let's fire it... but first, find the correct relation
if
                 * this is not the same relation as before.
                 */
                if (rel == NULL || RelationGetRelid(rel) !=
evtshared->ats_relid)
                {   
...
                    if (trigdesc == NULL)   /* should not happen */
                        elog(ERROR, "relation %u has no triggers",
                             evtshared->ats_relid);

Reproduced on REL_12_STABLE .. master.
