I have written a 'before insert' trigger using a similar technique to
that described in section 5.11.3 of :
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/14/ddl-partitioning.html#DDL-PARTITIONING-USING-INHERITANCE

However my trigger queries to see if the partition table exists,
creates it if it doesn't then inserts into it and returns 'SKIP'
(plpython3u).
