Specifying this option makes the server not wait for the
xlog to be archived, or emit a warning that it can't,
instead leaving the responsibility with the client.
This is useful when the log is being streamed using
the streaming protocol in parallel with the backup,
without having log archiving enabled.

Older versions of gcc tend to throw "variable might be clobbered by
`longjmp' or `vfork'" warnings whenever a variable is assigned in more than
one place and then used after the end of a PG_TRY block. That's reasonably
easy to work around in execute_extension_script, and the overhead of
unconditionally saving/restoring the GUC variables seems unlikely to be a
serious concern.
Also clean up logic in ATExecValidateConstraint to make it easier to read
and less likely to provoke "variable might be used uninitialized in this
function" warnings.

This patch adds the server infrastructure to support extensions.
There is still one significant loose end, namely how to make it play nice
with pg_upgrade, so I am not yet committing the changes that would make
all the contrib modules depend on this feature.
In passing, fix a disturbingly large amount of breakage in
AlterObjectNamespace() and callers.

If the standby was streaming when trigger file arrives, check also in the
archive for additional WAL files. This is a corner case since it is
unlikely that we would trigger a failover while the master is still
available and sending data to standby, while at the same time running in
archive mode and also while the streaming standby has fallen behind archive.
Someone would eventually be unlucky; we must plug all gaps however small.

FK constraints that are marked NOT VALID may later be VALIDATED, which uses an
ShareUpdateExclusiveLock on constraint table and RowShareLock on referenced
table. Significantly reduces lock strength and duration when adding FKs.

about uninitialized field you get on some compilers.

Waiting for relation locks can lead to starvation - it pins down an
autovacuum worker for as long as the lock is held. But if we're doing
an anti-wraparound vacuum, then we still wait; maintenance can no longer
be put off.
To assist with troubleshooting, if log_autovacuum_min_duration >= 0,
we log whenever an autovacuum or autoanalyze is skipped for this reason.
Per a gripe by Josh Berkus, and ensuing discussion.

I thought we didn't need that, but then I remembered that it added a new
SLRU subdirectory, pg_serial. While we're at it, document what pg_serial is.

Until now, our Serializable mode has in fact been what's called Snapshot
Isolation, which allows some anomalies that could not occur in any
serialized ordering of the transactions. This patch fixes that using a
method called Serializable Snapshot Isolation, based on research papers by
Michael J. Cahill (see README-SSI for full references). In Serializable
Snapshot Isolation, transactions run like they do in Snapshot Isolation,
but a predicate lock manager observes the reads and writes performed and
aborts transactions if it detects that an anomaly might occur. This method
produces some false positives, ie. it sometimes aborts transactions even
though there is no anomaly.
To track reads we implement predicate locking, see storage/lmgr/predicate.c.
Whenever a tuple is read, a predicate lock is acquired on the tuple. Shared
memory is finite, so when a transaction takes many tuple-level locks on a
page, the locks are promoted to a single page-level lock, and further to a
single relation level lock if necessary. To lock key values with no matching
tuple, a sequential scan always takes a relation-level lock, and an index
scan acquires a page-level lock that covers the search key, whether or not
there are any matching keys at the moment.
A predicate lock doesn't conflict with any regular locks or with another
predicate locks in the normal sense. They're only used by the predicate lock
manager to detect the danger of anomalies. Only serializable transactions
participate in predicate locking, so there should be no extra overhead for
for other transactions.
Predicate locks can't be released at commit, but must be remembered until
all the transactions that overlapped with it have completed. That means that
we need to remember an unbounded amount of predicate locks, so we apply a
lossy but conservative method of tracking locks for committed transactions.
If we run short of shared memory, we overflow to a new "pg_serial" SLRU
pool.
We don't currently allow Serializable transactions in Hot Standby mode.
That would be hard, because even read-only transactions can cause anomalies
that wouldn't otherwise occur.
Serializable isolation mode now means the new fully serializable level.
Repeatable Read gives you the old Snapshot Isolation level that we have
always had.

If the foreign table's rowtype is being used as the type of a column in
another table, we can't just up and change its data type. This was
already checked for composite types and ordinary tables, but we
previously failed to enforce it for foreign tables.

Make sure it's clear that the prohibition on adding a column with a default
when the rowtype is used elsewhere is intentional, and be a bit more
explicit about the other cases where we perform this check.

This fixes make distprep, and seems more robust in other ways as well.
Some special handling is required because errcodes.txt is needed by
some stuff in src/port, but just by src/backend as is the case for the
other generated headers.
While I'm at it, fix a few other things that were overlooked in the
