Attached is a tentative patch. I've verified no regression for mysql.
There should be no regression for sqlite as the code path is identical.

Are you able to test for pgsql? As mentioned by Akie it will break for
PostgresSql < 9.5 but probably it was not working anyway due to
duplicate keys. Whether this is a wider problem depends on whether the
insert code is being used for other purposes too.

If you or someone can verify it works on PostgresSql >= 9.5, then the
next step will be to make it conditional on the version.
