 * AlterTableCreateToastTable

 *		then create a toast table for it.  (With the force option, make
 *		a toast table even if it appears unnecessary.)
 *
 * The caller can also specify the OID to be used for the toast table.
 * Usually, toastOid should be InvalidOid to allow a free OID to be assigned.
 * (This option, as well as the force option, is not used by core Postgres,
 * but is provided to support pg_migrator.)
 *
 * reloptions for the toast table can be passed, too.  Pass (Datum) 0
 * for default reloptions.
 *
 * We expect the caller to have verified that the relation is a table and have
 * already done any necessary permission checks.  Callers expect this function
 * to end with CommandCounterIncrement if it makes any changes.
