Allow ALTER TABLE ONLY on partitioned tables

There is no need to forbid ALTER TABLE ONLY on partitioned tables,
when no partitions exist yet. This can be handy for users who are
building up their partitioned table independently and will create actual
partitions later.

In addition, this is how pg_dump likes to operate in certain instances.
