I take that back.  I think this change would warrant merging this new
code with the existing verifyNotNullPKCompatible(), which wants to do
pretty much the same; but that's probably a larger refactoring that
should be done in pg20 only.  So maybe we can just do the simple thing
(Ante's patch, mostly, I think) for this backpatchable bug fix, then
change things more fully later on.
