Normally, it is a good idea to free whenever the allocation is done in
a long-lived context. However, in some places, we free just for the
sake of cleanliness. I think we don't need to bother doing retail free
in this case unless it is allocated in some long-lived context.

> we do palloc here and return allocated memory to caller as 'owner'. Caller sets this 'owner' using SetConfigOption()
whichinternally allocates new memory and copies 'owner' to that. So the memory allocated in deparse_ddl_json_to_string
isnever freed. Better way should be the caller passing this allocated memory to deparse_ddl_json_to_string() and
freeingit when done. Thoughts?

I think that will complicate the code. I don't see the need to
allocate this in any longer-lived context, so we shouldn't be bothered
to retail pfree it.

Yeah, we can do this for the sake of consistency.
Few comments on 0001 patch:
=============================
1.
+ case 'O':
+ specifier = SpecOperatorName;
+ break;
...
+ case 'R':
+ specifier = SpecRole;
+ break;
+ default:
Both of these specifiers don't seem to be used in the patch. So, we
can remove them. I see some references to 'O' in the comments, those
also need to be modified.
2.
+ /* For identity column, find the sequence owned by column in order
+ * to deparse the column definition */
In multi-line comments, the first and last lines should be empty.
Refer to multi-line comments at other places.
3.
+ return object_name.data;
+
+}
An extra empty line before } is not required.
