Preserve replica identity index across ALTER TABLE rewrite

If an index was explicitly set as replica identity index, this setting
was lost when a table was rewritten by ALTER TABLE.  Because this
setting is part of pg_index but actually controlled by ALTER
TABLE (not part of CREATE INDEX, say), we have to do some extra work
to restore it.
