I have some questions/comments (no change on status, I didn't test)

- FK are constraint triggers, does it makes sense to align 
"ATExecAlterFKConstrEnforceability" renaming with other functions like 
"AlterConstrTriggerDeferrability" ?

- I also wonder if it makes sense to manage NOT NULL together with 
CHECK, like in ATAddCheckNNConstraint.... ?
