Fix data inconsistency between publisher and subscriber.

Amit Kapila · Amit Kapila · commit 1f9a7738eb84 · 2022-06-16T08:24:22.000+05:30
We were not updating the partition map cache in the subscriber even when the corresponding remote rel is changed. Due to this data was getting incorrectly replicated for partition tables after the publisher has changed the table schema. Fix it by resetting the required entries in the partition map cache after receiving a new relation mapping from the publisher.
