Make pg_dump --data-only try to order the table dumps so that foreign keys' referenced tables are dumped before the referencing tables. This avoids failures when the data is loaded with the FK constraints already active. If no such ordering is possible because of circular or self-referential constraints, print a NOTICE to warn the user about it.
