In PostgreSQL 18, this error code is now used for `ON DELETE RESTRICT` constraint violation. The existing `:foreign_key_violation` error code is raised for `ON DELETE NO ACTION`. The behaviour changed in postgres commit postgres/postgres@086c84b The change is backwards compatible as the error code was not previously raised even though it existed in the postgres documentation. It is now correctly raised for the `ON DELETE RESTRICT` constraint.
