Hi.

I tried this feature with the latest snapshot. When I executed the following 
SQL statement, multiple primary keys were created on the partition. 
Is this the intended behavior?

-- test
postgres=> CREATE TABLE part1(c1 INT PRIMARY KEY, c2 INT, c3 VARCHAR(10)) 
PARTITION BY RANGE(c1) ;
CREATE TABLE
postgres=> CREATE TABLE part1v1 (LIKE part1) ;
CREATE TABLE
postgres=> ALTER TABLE part1v1 ADD CONSTRAINT pk_part1v1 PRIMARY KEY (c1, c2) ;
ALTER TABLE
postgres=> ALTER TABLE part1 ATTACH PARTITION part1v1 FOR VALUES FROM (100) TO 
(200) ;
ALTER TABLE
postgres=> \d part1v1
                     Table "public.part1v1"
 Column |         Type          | Collation | Nullable | Default
--------+-----------------------+-----------+----------+---------
 c1     | integer               |           | not null |
 c2     | integer               |           | not null |
 c3     | character varying(10) |           |          |
Partition of: part1 FOR VALUES FROM (100) TO (200)
Indexes:
    "part1v1_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (c1)
    "pk_part1v1" PRIMARY KEY, btree (c1, c2)

I noticed with the commit that, while ON CONFLICT (conflict_target) DO UPDATE 
gives a less surprising error message by catching it in the parser, ON CONFLICT 
(conflict_target) DO NOTHING will go into the executor without the necessary 
code to handle the case.  Example:

create table p (a int primary key, b text) partition by list (a); create table 
p12 partition of p for values in (1, 2); create table p3 partition of p (a 
unique) for values in (3);

insert into p values (1, 'a') on conflict (a) do nothing;
ERROR:  unexpected failure to find arbiter index

Attached is a patch to fix that.  Actually, there are two -- one that adjusts 
the partitioned table tests in insert_conflict.sql to have a partitioned unique 
index and another that fixes the code.

I suppose we'd need to apply this temporarily until we fix the ON CONFLICT
(conflict_target) case to be able to use partitioned indexes.

Thanks,
Amit
