Fix segmentby typmod and collation of compressed chunks

We added a workaround for segmentby columns with incorrect typmod
and collation in c73c5a7 but did not adjust pre-existing relations.
This patch will fix any existing relations where the segmentby columns
of compressed chunks have incorrect typmod and collation and remove
the code workaround.
