So, the more I thought about this, the more it seemed that marking those
triggers as not internal was the wrong thing to do. So I instead made
it clone the internal triggers that seem to matter. This fixes the
originally reported problem, and passes the test case I propose. Also,
pg_dump continues to work unchanged, and existing database don't need
tweaking (excepting those that might already be missing triggers).
It would be better to fix master afterwards, by adding a
pg_trigger.trgparentid column, which seems like it would be a better
answer going forward.
