Hi!

Thank you for the review.  Revised patch is attached.

Neither \dA or \dA+ are introduced or affected by this patch.  If we
like to change their behavior, we should probably do this separately
from this patch.

It was shown by \dAp+.  But I agree that it's essential information
that is unreasonable to hide under verbose option.  So, procedure name
is always shown now.  I've also renamed "Support function" column to
"Number".

I made this change, but using subselect in target list.  It's probably
slower query, but better code readability IMHO.

It's already shown by \dAc+ and I think this behavior is fine.
