The documentation for ALTER TYPE .. RENAME claimed to support a
RESTRICT/CASCADE option at the 'type' level, which wasn't implemented
and doesn't make a whole lot of sense to begin with. What is supported,
and previously undocumented, is
ALTER TYPE .. RENAME ATTRIBUTE .. RESTRICT/CASCADE.
I've updated the documentation and back-patched this to 9.1 where it was
first introduced.
