I have a question on the display of this new parameter.

postgres=# \dRp+
                                      Publication pub_gen
  Owner   | All tables | Inserts | Updates | Deletes | Truncates | Via
root | Generated columns
----------+------------+---------+---------+---------+-----------+----------+-------------------
 KapilaAm | f          | t       | t       | t       | t         | f        | t
Tables:
    "public.test_gen"

The current theory for the display of the "Generated Columns" option
could be that let's add new parameters at the end which sounds
reasonable. The other way to look at it is how it would be easier for
users to interpret. I think the value of the "Via root" option should
be either after "All tables" or at the end as that is higher level
table information than operations or column-level information. As
currently, it is at the end, so "Generated Columns" should be added
before.

Thoughts?
