Fix pg_dump to not emit invalid SQL for an empty operator class.

tglsfdc · tglsfdc · commit 5886c7d5893f · 2017-05-26T12:51:05.000-04:00
If an operator class has no operators or functions, and doesn't need a STORAGE clause, we emitted "CREATE OPERATOR CLASS ... AS ;" which is syntactically invalid. Fix by forcing a STORAGE clause to be emitted anyway in this case. (At some point we might consider changing the grammar to allow CREATE OPERATOR CLASS without an opclass_item_list. But probably we'd want to omit the AS in that case, so that wouldn't fix this pg_dump issue anyway.) It's been like this all along, so back-patch to all supported branches.
