Fix usage of "tableoid" in GENERATED expressions.

We consider this supported (though I've got my doubts that it's a
good idea, because tableoid is not immutable).  However, several
code paths failed to fill the field in soon enough, causing such
a GENERATED expression to see zero or the wrong value.  This
occurred when ALTER TABLE adds a new GENERATED column to a table
with existing rows, and during regular INSERT or UPDATE on a
foreign table with GENERATED columns.

Noted during investigation of a report from Vitaly Ustinov.
Back-patch to v12 where GENERATED came in.
