Hmm, okay, but not-null constraints on domain cannot be NOT VALID at
present.  I think it would be a useful feature (so that users can make
domains not-null that are used in tables already populated with data),
but first you'd need to implement things so that each table has a
not-null constraint row for the column whose type is the domain that's
being marked not-null.

Anyway, here's a patch.

Subject: [PATCH v6] pg_dump: include comments on not-null constraints on
 domains, too
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Commit e5da0fe3c22b introduced catalog entries for not-null constraints
on domains; but because commit b0e96f311985 (the original work for
catalogued not-null constraints on tables) forgot to teach pg_dump to
process the comments for them, this one also forgot.  Add that now.
