Modified as per your suggestion.

I have added that conditional to avoid tuple already updated by self error.
ATExecSetNotNull() is updating tuple and its coninhcount if a constraint
already exists.
Since we have a recursive call to all childrens
from ATExecAlterConstraint(), the recursive call to children doesn't go
through CommandCounterIncrement().

Fixed.
