Shortly speaking, it was done according to the 'Paranoid' strategy.
The main reason for copying before deletion was the case with the rinfo
required_relids and clause_relids. They both point to the same Bitmapset
in some cases. And we feared such things for other fields.
Right now, it may be redundant because we resolved the issue mentioned
above in replace_varno_walker.
Relid replacement machinery is the most contradictory code here. We used
a utilitarian approach and implemented a simplistic variant.

Thanks for the links, I will look into that case.
