Surely not. That would end up having to read *all* of pg_constraint, not
only the rows applicable to the current relation.
We could get the index to do the work for us if we changed it from an
index on conrelid to one on conrelid, conname. However, seeing that that
would bloat the index by a factor of sixteen, it hardly sounds like a
free fix either.
I really think that a quick application of qsort is the best-performing
way to do this.
