Backport 1/1 commits from #139084 on behalf of @rafiss.

/cc @cockroachdb/release


The validations added in 4f99f9c were
too strict. This patch makes it so we can continue having IDENTITY
columns that are not backed by a sequence. This can happen if a SERIAL
column is created with IDENTITY, and serial_normalization=rowid.

informs #138925
informs #138972

Release note (bug fix): Fixed a bug where columns created with GENERATED ... BY IDENTITY with the SERIAL type could incorrectly fail internal validations.


Release justification: high priority bug fix; fixes overly strict validation that could break functionality

Thanks for opening a backport.

Please check the backport criteria before merging:

  • Backports should only be created for serious
    issues
    or test-only changes.
  • Backports should not break backwards-compatibility.
  • Backports should change as little code as possible.
  • Backports should not change on-disk formats or node communication protocols.
  • Backports should not add new functionality (except as defined
    here).
  • Backports must not add, edit, or otherwise modify cluster versions; or add version gates.
  • All backports must be reviewed by the owning areas TL. For more information as to how that review should be conducted, please consult the backport
    policy
    .
If your backport adds new functionality, please ensure that the following additional criteria are satisfied:
  • There is a high priority need for the functionality that cannot wait until the next release and is difficult to address in another way.
  • The new functionality is additive-only and only runs for clusters which have specifically “opted in” to it (e.g. by a cluster setting).
  • New code is protected by a conditional check that is trivial to verify and ensures that it only runs for opt-in clusters. State changes must be further protected such that nodes running old binaries will not be negatively impacted by the new state (with a mixed version test added).
  • The PM and TL on the team that owns the changed code have signed off that the change obeys the above rules.
  • Your backport must be accompanied by a post to the appropriate Slack
    channel (#db-backports-point-releases or #db-backports-XX-X-release) for awareness and discussion.

Also, please add a brief release justification to the body of your PR to justify this
backport.
