I rarely use pgbench, and probably never looked at its source before, but I saw
that it has a separate --tablespace and --index-tablespace, and that
--tablespace is *not* the default for indexes.

So if we changed it to use SET default_tablespace instead of amending the DDL
sql, we'd need to make sure the SET applied only to the intended CREATE
command, and not all following create commands.  In the case that
--index-tablespace is not specified, it would be buggy to do this:

SET default_tablespace=foo;
CREATE TABLE ...
CREATE INDEX ...
CREATE TABLE ...
CREATE INDEX ...
...

PS. Thanks for patching it to work with partitioned tables :)
