    Doc: improve documentation about inheritance. · 162477a6
    Tom Lane authored
    Clarify documentation about inheritance of check constraints, in
    particular mentioning the NO INHERIT option, which didn't exist when
    this text was written.
    
    Document that in an inherited query, the applicable row security policies
    are those of the explicitly-named table, not its children.  This is the
    intended behavior (per off-list discussion with Stephen Frost), and there
    are regression tests for it, but it wasn't documented anywhere user-facing
    as far as I could find.
    
    Do a bit of wordsmithing on the description of inherited access-privilege
    checks.
    
    Back-patch to 9.5 where RLS was added.
