Attached is v2 version of the patch. It contains the above
trigger-related issue fixed.
The updated tuple is passed back using the existing newslot parameter
of GetTupleForTrigger(). When ExecBRDeleteTriggers() is called using a
new epqslot parameter, it means caller wants to skip the trigger
execution, because the updated tuple needs to be again checked for
constraints. I have added comments of this behaviour in the
ExecBRDeleteTriggers() function header.
Because the trigger execution is skipped the first time ExecDelete()
is called, I didn't have to explicitly add any changes for preventing
trigger execution the second time.

Added the test cases. Also added cases where the concurrent session
causes the EvalPlanQual() test to fail, so the partition key update
does not happen.
