Álvaro Herrera fd64ed60b6 Unbreak overflow test for attinhcount/coninhcount ...

Commit 90189eefc1 narrowed pg_attribute.attinhcount and
pg_constraint.coninhcount from 32 to 16 bits, but kept other related
structs with 32-bit wide fields: ColumnDef and CookedConstraint contain
an int 'inhcount' field which is itself checked for overflow on
increments, but there's no check that the values aren't above INT16_MAX
before assigning to the catalog columns.  This means that a creative
user can get a inconsistent table definition and override some
protections.

Fix it by changing those other structs to also use int16.

Also, modernize style by using pg_add_s16_overflow for overflow testing
instead of checking for negative values.

We also have Constraint.inhcount, which is here removed completely.
This was added by commit b0e96f3119 and not removed by its revert at
6f8bb7c1e9.  It is not needed by the upcoming not-null constraints
patch.

This is mostly academic, so we agreed not to backpatch to avoid ABI
problems.

Bump catversion because of the changes to parse nodes.
