That's clearly a bug, we can't just break stuff like that.

I haven't tried the reproducer, but I think I see the issue - we store
the bitmap as part of the event to be executed later, but the bitmap is
in per-tuple context and gets reset. So I guess we need to copy it into
the proper long-lived context (e.g. AfterTriggerEvents).
I'll get that fixed.
Anyway, this probably hints we should not recalculate the bitmap over
and over, but calculate it once and keep it for all events. Not
something we can do in backbranches, though.
