Subject: [PATCH] pg_restore: Fix comment handling with --no-publications /
 --no-subscriptions.

Previously, pg_restore did not skip comments on publications or subscriptions
even when --no-publications or --no-subscriptions was specified. As a result,
it could issue COMMENT commands for objects that were never created,
causing those commands to fail.

This commit fixes the issue by ensuring that comments on publications and
subscriptions are also skipped when the corresponding options are used.

Backpatch to all supported versions.
