If it is not too much data, the easiest would be to use pg_dump to
dump the database (or just the table), edit the definition, and feed
the changed file to psql in order to get the data back. Or you can
create a different table with the correct structure, copy the data
there, drop the old table, rename the new one to the correct one.
