4.25 key_column_usage
The view key_column_usage identifies all columns
in the current database that are restricted by some unique, primary
key, or foreign key constraint. Check constraints are not included
in this view. Only those columns are shown that the current user
has access to, by way of being the owner or having some privilege.
