Re: converting FK's to "DEFERRABLE"

Hack its pg_constraint.condeferrable and pg_constraint.condeferred
fields (the latter is the INITIALLY DEFERRED flag).  You will also
need to find the triggers that implement the constraint and update
their pg_trigger.tgdeferrable and pg_trigger.tginitdeferred copies
of these values.  Then start fresh backend sessions and I think
you're there.

AFAIK the most reliable way to find the triggers is to follow the
linking entries in pg_depend.
