Sqlite preserves primary keys when copying/altering tables.

Backport #2312.
Fixes #9367.

I also added a test-case to make sure that renaming or removing
a column preserves the primary key.

+*   Sqlite now preserves custom primary keys when copying or altering tables.
+    Fixes #9367.
+    Backport #2312.
+
+    *Sean Scally + Yves Senn*
+
 *   Preloading `has_many :through` associations with conditions won't
     cache the `:through` association. This will prevent invalid
     subsets to be cached.
