Make ALTER TRIGGER RENAME consistent for partitioned tables

Renaming triggers on partitioned tables had two problems: first,
it did not recurse to renaming the triggers on the partitions; and
second, it failed to prohibit renaming clone triggers.  Having triggers
with different names in partitions is pointless, and furthermore pg_dump
would not preserve names for partitions anyway.

Not backpatched -- making the ALTER TRIGGER throw an error in stable
versions might cause problems for existing scripts.
