Fix pg_dump/pg_restore to restore event trigger comments later.

tglsfdc · tglsfdc · commit 830471e0dcf6 · 2020-04-08T11:23:39.000-04:00
Repair an oversight in commit 8728b2c: if we're postponing restore of event triggers to the end, we must also postpone restoring any comments on them, since of course we cannot create the comments first. (This opens yet another opportunity for an event trigger to bollix the restore, but there's no help for that.) Per bug #16346 from Alexander Lakhin. Like the previous commit, back-patch to all supported branches. Hamid Akhtar and Tom Lane Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/16346-6210ad7a0ea81be1@postgresql.org
