Fix List memory issue in transformColumnDefinition
When calling generateSerialExtraStmts(), we would pass in the constraint->options. In some cases, generateSerialExtraStmts() would modify the referenced List to remove elements from it, but doing so is invalid without assigning the list back to all variables that point to it. In the particular reported problem case, the List became empty, in which cases it became NIL, but the passed in constraint->options didn't get to find out about that and was left pointing to free'd memory. To fix this, just perform a list_copy() inside generateSerialExtraStmts(). We could just do a list_copy() just before we perform the delete from the list, however, that seems less robust. Let's make sure the generated CreateSeqStmt gets a completely different copy of the list to be safe.
