the main code change is within DefineDomain.

AlterTableUtilityContext comments says:
/* Info needed when recursing from ALTER TABLE */
so we cannot pass DefineDomain with AlterTableUtilityContext.

-DefineDomain(CreateDomainStmt *stmt)
+DefineDomain(ParseState *pstate, CreateDomainStmt *stmt)
we have to pass either ParseState or queryString to DefineDomain.

-extern ObjectAddress AlterType(AlterTypeStmt *stmt);
+extern ObjectAddress AlterType(ParseState *pstate, AlterTypeStmt *stmt);
this change not necessary, we can remove it.


but other places (listed in below),
we are passing (AlterTableUtilityContext *context) which seems ok?

-ATExecAddOf(Relation rel, const TypeName *ofTypename, LOCKMODE lockmode)
+ATExecAddOf(Relation rel, const TypeName *ofTypename, LOCKMODE lockmode,
+ AlterTableUtilityContext *context)

 static ObjectAddress ATExecAlterColumnType(AlteredTableInfo *tab, Relation rel,
-   AlterTableCmd *cmd, LOCKMODE lockmode);
+   AlterTableCmd *cmd, LOCKMODE lockmode,
+   AlterTableUtilityContext *context);

 static ObjectAddress
 ATExecAlterColumnType(AlteredTableInfo *tab, Relation rel,
-  AlterTableCmd *cmd, LOCKMODE lockmode)
+  AlterTableCmd *cmd, LOCKMODE lockmode,
+  AlterTableUtilityContext *context)
