   7    trigger.

   9    The <code class="literal">RENAME</code> clause changes the name of
  10    the given trigger without otherwise changing the trigger
  11    definition.
  12    If the table that the trigger is on is a partitioned table,
  13    then corresponding clone triggers in the partitions are
  14    renamed too.

  16    The <code class="literal">DEPENDS ON EXTENSION</code> clause marks
  17    the trigger as dependent on an extension, such that if the extension is
  18    dropped, the trigger will automatically be dropped as well.
