Hi,

here comes the next version. Changes:
* Implemented ALTER TABLE ... DROP IDENTITY
 and SET GENERATED { ALWAYS | BY DEFAULT } AS IDENTITY
* Extended documentation and testcase for the above.
* pg_dump now dumps the proper ALTER for such columns.
  Reintroduced the pg_dump feature to dump
  OVERRIDING SYSTEM VALUE for INSERT and
  COPY statements if the table schema contains any
  GENERATED ALWAYS column.
* There can be only one IDENTITY column in a table at any time.
 This is checked on CREATE, ALTER TABLE ADD and
 ALTER TABLE SET ... IDENTITY and required for SQL:2003
 compliance.
* On update, the GENERATED columns' late generation
 of DEFAULT value is also implemented. The GENERATED
 ALWAYS AS ( expr ) still only deals within the same
 limits as regular DEFAULT.
* Implemented a check so CHECK constraints cannot
 reference IDENTITY/GENERATED columns.
 It is checked on CREATE AND ALTER TABLE
 ADD CONSTRAINT and ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN.
 It makes sense because IDENTITY and GENERATED
 columns has to be assigned after all other columns were
 assigned with values and validated via constraints.

I hereby declare the IDENTITY part feature complete.
Please review.

Best regards,
Zoltán Böszörményi
