Check for pending trigger events on far end when dropping an FK constraint.

When dropping a foreign key constraint with ALTER TABLE DROP CONSTRAINT,
we refuse the drop if there are any pending trigger events on the named
table; this ensures that we won't remove the pg_trigger row that will be
consulted by those events.  But we should make the same check for the
referenced relation, else we might remove a due-to-be-referenced pg_trigger
row for that relation too, resulting in "could not find trigger NNN" or
"relation NNN has no triggers" errors at commit.  Per bug #14431 from
Benjie Gillam.  Back-patch to all supported branches.
