On pg 17:

create table t(i int not null);
alter table t add constraint t_i_not_null check((i is not null)) not valid;


then upgrade to current master, will fail with

```
pg_restore: error: could not execute query: ERROR:  constraint
"t_i_not_null" for relation "t" already exists
Command was: ALTER TABLE "public"."t"
    ADD CONSTRAINT "t_i_not_null" CHECK (("i" IS NOT NULL)) NOT VALID;
```


I think we need to fix this in the spirit of [0]. I'm currently
thinking of choosing a less obvious name for NOT NULL constraint that
is created during CREATE TABLE processing. Is that a good way to
address this? This will impact non-pg_upgrade creations too, is this
important?

If so, I will share a patch on this
