pgsql: Handle dependencies properly in ALTER POLICY

Handle dependencies properly in ALTER POLICY

ALTER POLICY hadn't fully considered partial policy alternation
(eg: change just the roles on the policy, or just change one of
the expressions) when rebuilding the dependencies.  Instead, it
would happily remove all dependencies which existed for the
policy and then only recreate the dependencies for the objects
referred to in the specific ALTER POLICY command.

Correct that by extracting and building the dependencies for all
objects referenced by the policy, regardless of if they were
provided as part of the ALTER POLICY command or were already in
place as part of the pre-existing policy.
