On second thought, this seems like an overkill. It might be OK after
all for both a partitioned table and its partitions to be explicitly
added to a publication without complaining of duplication. IOW, it's
the user's call whether it makes sense to do that or not.

Attached updated 0001 considering the above and the rest of the
patches that add support for replicating partitioned tables using
their own identity and schema. I have reorganized the other patches
as follows:
0002: refactoring of logical/worker.c without any functionality
changes (contains much less churn than in earlier versions)
0003: support logical replication into partitioned tables on the
subscription side (allows replicating from a non-partitioned table on
publisher node into a partitioned table on subscriber node)
0004: support optionally replicating partitioned table changes (and
changes directly made to partitions) using root partitioned table
identity and schema
Thanks,
Amit
