Fix ALTER SEQUENCE so that it does not affect the value of currval() for

the sequence.  Also, make setval() with is_called = false not affect the
currval state, either.  Per report from Kris Jurka that an implicit
ALTER SEQUENCE OWNED BY unexpectedly caused currval() to become valid.
Since this isn't 100% backwards compatible, it will go into HEAD only;
I'll put a more limited patch into 8.2.
