Agreed, fixed in the attached patch.

Done, too.

MergeAttributesIntoExisting() is called by ATExecAddInherit() as well,
where we don't want to check that. Sure, we can only check if
child_is_partition, but I thought it'd be better to keep the shared code
(between regular inheritance and partitioning) as close to the old close
as possible.
Attached patch also fixes a couple of other minor issues.
