Sorry, couldn't answer your previous message, since was away. So far I don't
see any problems with your proposed patch.

I also find strange another part of this problem, namely why we ended up doing
AlterTableInternal at all, since I assumed that after MergeAttributes all
attnotnull should be merged with OR. But for example these would work:
CREATE TABLE collections_list_1
PARTITION OF collections_list
FOR VALUES IN (1);
CREATE TABLE collections_list_1
PARTITION OF collections_list (key, ts, collection_id not null, value)
FOR VALUES IN (1);
Looks like in MergeAttributes at the branch:
if (is_partition && list_length(saved_schema) > 0)
we override not null property of ColumnDef:
if (coldef->is_from_parent)
{
coldef->is_not_null = restdef->is_not_null;
It looks a bit confusing, so I wonder if it's how it should be?
