    Avoid sometimes printing both tables and their columns in DROP CASCADE. · 9194c427
    Tom Lane authored
    A cascaded drop might find independent reasons to drop both a table
    and some column of the table (for instance, a schema drop might include
    dropping a data type used in some table in the schema).  Depending on
    the order of visitation of pg_depend entries, we might report the
    table column and the whole table as separate objects-to-be-dropped,
    or we might only report the table.  This is confusing and leads to
    unstable regression test output, so fix it to report only the table
    regardless of visitation order.
    
    Per gripe from Peter Geoghegan.  This is just cosmetic from a user's
    standpoint, and we haven't actually seen regression test problems in
    practice (yet), so I'll refrain from back-patching.
