Fix FK triggers losing DEFERRABLE/INITIALLY DEFERRED when marked ENFORCED again

Previously, a foreign key defined as DEFERRABLE INITIALLY DEFERRED could
behave as NOT DEFERRABLE after being set to NOT ENFORCED and then back
to ENFORCED.

This happened because recreating the FK triggers on re-enabling the constraint
forgot to restore the tgdeferrable and tginitdeferred fields in pg_trigger.

Fix this bug by properly setting those fields when the foreign key constraint
is marked ENFORCED again and its triggers are recreated, so the original
DEFERRABLE and INITIALLY DEFERRED properties are preserved.

Backpatch to v18, where NOT ENFORCED foreign keys were introduced.
