Thank you, that way seems right.
Now, I distinguish before each creation of a TOAST table with
AlterTableCreateToastTable() : if it will create a new one or recreate
an existing one.
Thus, in create_toast_table() when toastTableSpace is equal to
InvalidOid, we are able :
- to fallback to the main table tablespace in case of new TOAST table creation
- to keep it previous tablespace in case of recreation.

Here's a new version rebased against HEAD.
