Fix List memory issue in transformColumnDefinition

When calling generateSerialExtraStmts(), we would pass in the
constraint->options.  In some cases, generateSerialExtraStmts() would
modify the referenced List to remove elements from it, but doing so is
invalid without assigning the list back to all variables that point to it.
In the particular reported problem case, the List became empty, in which
cases it became NIL, but the passed in constraint->options didn't get to
find out about that and was left pointing to free'd memory.

To fix this, just perform a list_copy() inside generateSerialExtraStmts().
We could just do a list_copy() just before we perform the delete from the
list, however, that seems less robust.  Let's make sure the generated
CreateSeqStmt gets a completely different copy of the list to be safe.
