Commit e5d25959cf made REPACK null-out values of dropped columns in
the NEW tuple of an UPDATE. However, a concurrent INSERT can carry one
too, for example when a trigger returns a copy of an existing row.
REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) then kept the values for such columns, which is
wasteful -- or worse, failed with "row is too big" if the new heap
happens not to have a TOAST table.
Move their clearing from prepare_concurrent_update() to restore_tuple()
so that it affects all tuples processed, not just the UPDATE ones.
