Subject: [PATCH] Support SERIAL column type. Expand column marked is_sequence
 into three  statements:  - the table definition with a default clause
 referencing the sequence;  - a CREATE SEQUENCE statement;  - a UNIQUE
 constraint, which expands into a CREATE INDEX statement. This is not a
 perfect solution, since the sequence will remain even if  the table is
 dropped. Also, there is no absolute protection on updating  the sequence
 column.
