I believe you can rename the underlying indexes and the constraints will
follow them.  (This works in HEAD anyway, not sure how far back.)

No, there's nothing automatic for that.  IIRC there used to be code to
try to do this when you renamed a single column; but we took it out,
probably because it risked unexpected failures due to index name
collisions.
