The patch seems ugly enough without wiring in knowledge of what the
standard comment is :-(
We don't dump non-default comments on other system objects either,
so I don't think it's out of line to suppress the one on schema public.
Perhaps at some point we should add something to pg_description to allow
distinguishing user-supplied comments from built-in ones, and then dump
any user-supplied comment on any system object. But not today ...
