This became commit 0858f0f.

The last argument gives the dump object on which the comment has a dependency.
Since this is the case of a separately-dumped constraint, the comment needs to
depend on that constraint (coninfo), not on the domain (tyinfo):

-                            coninfo->dobj.catId, 0, tyinfo->dobj.dumpId);
+                            coninfo->dobj.catId, 0, coninfo->dobj.dumpId);

I didn't encounter a failure from this, but sufficient restore parallelism
might reach a failure.  A failure would look like a "does not exist" error in
the COMMENT command, due to the constraint not yet existing.
dumpTableConstraintComment() is an older case that optimally handles the last
dumpComment() arg.

In the absence of objections, I'll make it so.
