Iam surprised there is no unique index on (tgparentid, tgrelid), which sounds like a decent sanity check to have
anyways.
If we have good use for such an index, I don't see why we can't add it.
But I'm not sure that it is justified -- certainly if the only benefit
is to make ALTER TRIGGER RENAME recurse faster on partitioned tables, it
is not justified.
