Thanks for the new version. The commit message seems better. Just a few
comments:

+       /*
+        * Find everything that depends on the column (constraints, indexes, 
etc),
+        * and record enough information to let us recreate the objects after
+        * rewrite.
+        */
+       RememberAllDependentForRebuilding(tab, AT_SetExpression, rel, attnum, 
colName);
+
Perhaps this comments should be updated since we are now collecting
these dependencies for virtual generated columns too that it not require
a table rewrite.

I think that it would be good to update the SET EXPRESSION AS
documentation on doc/src/sgml/ref/alter_table.sgml to mention that for
virtual columns the table is not rewritten but a full table scan may
still be needed if the column has check constraints.
