Bug reference: 16185

PostgreSQL version: 12.1
Operating system: Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS
Description:
If a trigger is defined on a partitioned table and the partition key is
updated that the row is moved to another partition, then the trigger is
fired twice first with TG_OP = 'DELETE' followed by TG_OP = 'INSERT'. As a
user I would expect that the trigger fires only once with TG_OP =
'UPDATE'.
To reproduce:
****************
create table t (id int, p_key int) partition by list (p_key);
create table t1 partition of t for values in (1);
create table t2 partition of t for values in (2);
insert into t (id,p_key) values (1,1);
create or replace function f()
RETURNS TRIGGER
LANGUAGE plpgsql
AS
$function$
BEGIN
RAISE NOTICE 'TG_OP: %', TG_OP;
RETURN NULL;
END;
$function$;
CREATE TRIGGER f_trig
AFTER INSERT or UPDATE or DELETE
ON t
FOR EACH ROW
EXECUTE PROCEDURE f();
postgres=# update t set p_key = 2 where id = 1;
NOTICE: TG_OP: DELETE
NOTICE: TG_OP: INSERT
UPDATE 1
