Fix event triggers for partitioned tables

Index DDL cascading on partitioned tables introduced a way for ALTER
TABLE to be called reentrantly.  This caused an an important deficiency
in event trigger support to be exposed: on exiting the reentrant call,
the alter table state object was clobbered, causing a crash when the
outer alter table tries to finalize its processing.  Fix the crash by
creating a stack of event trigger state objects.  There are still ways
to cause things to misbehave (and probably other crashers) with more
elaborate tricks, but at least it now doesn't crash in the obvious
scenario.

Backpatch to 9.5, where DDL deparsing of event triggers was introduced.
