We have lots of DDL ruleutils in our Citus codebase:
https://github.com/citusdata/citus/blob/main/src/backend/distributed/deparser/citus_ruleutils.c

I'm pretty sure we'd be happy to upstream those if that meant, we
wouldn't have to update them for every postgres release.

We also have the master_get_table_ddl_events UDF, which does what SHOW
CREATE TABLE would do.
