Right, we try to drop the constraint twice. We can dodge this by
collecting all constraints to drop in the loop and process them in a
single performMultipleDeletions, as in the attached v14-2.
TBH I think it's a bit infuriating that we lose the constraint (which
was explicitly declared) because of ATTACH/DETACH. So the behavior of
v15 and above is better.

I think the action triggers are missing, so if you keep rows in the r_1
table after you've detached them, you can still delete them from the
referenced table p, instead of getting the error that you should get.
