This introduces a new dependency type which marks an object as depending
on an extension, such that if the extension is dropped, the object
automatically goes away; and also, if the database is dumped, the object
is included in the dump output. Currently the grammar supports this for
indexes, triggers, materialized views and functions only, although the
utility code is generic so adding support for more object types is a
matter of touching the parser rules only.

has_parallel_hazard() was ignoring the proparallel markings for
aggregates, which is no good. Fix that. There was no way to mark
an aggregate as actually being parallel-safe, either, so add a
PARALLEL option to CREATE AGGREGATE.

Previously non-exclusive backups had to be done using the replication protocol
and pg_basebackup. With this commit it's now possible to make them using
pg_start_backup/pg_stop_backup as well, as long as the backup program can
maintain a persistent connection to the database.
Doing this, backup_label and tablespace_map are returned as results from
pg_stop_backup() instead of being written to the data directory. This makes
the server safe from a crash during an ongoing backup, which can be a problem
with exclusive backups.
The old syntax of the functions remain and work exactly as before, but since the
new syntax is safer this should eventually be deprecated and removed.
Only reference documentation is included. The main section on backup still needs
to be rewritten to cover this, but since that is already scheduled for a separate
large rewrite, it's not included in this patch.

\gexec executes the just-entered query, like \g, but instead of printing
the results it takes each field as a SQL command to send to the server.
Computing a series of queries to be executed is a fairly common thing,
but up to now you always had to resort to kluges like writing the queries
to a file and then inputting the file. Now it can be done with no
intermediate step.
The implementation is fairly straightforward except for its interaction
with FETCH_COUNT. ExecQueryUsingCursor isn't capable of being called
recursively, and even if it were, its need to create a transaction
block interferes unpleasantly with the desired behavior of \gexec after
a failure of a generated query (i.e., that it can continue). Therefore,
disable use of ExecQueryUsingCursor when doing the master \gexec query.
We can still apply it to individual generated queries, however, and there
might be some value in doing so.
While testing this feature's interaction with single-step mode, I (tgl) was
led to conclude that SendQuery needs to recognize SIGINT (cancel_pressed)
as a negative response to the single-step prompt. Perhaps that's a
back-patchable bug fix, but for now I just included it here.

Often, upon getting an unexpected error in psql, one's first wish is that
the verbosity setting had been higher; for example, to be able to see the
schema-name field or the server code location info. Up to now the only way
has been to adjust the VERBOSITY variable and repeat the failing query.
That's a pain, and it doesn't work if the error isn't reproducible.
This commit adds a psql feature that redisplays the most recent server
error at full verbosity, without needing to make any variable changes or
re-execute the failed command. We just need to hang onto the latest error
PGresult in case the user executes \errverbose, and then apply libpq's
new PQresultVerboseErrorMessage() function to it. This will consume
some trivial amount of psql memory, but otherwise the cost when the
feature isn't used should be negligible.

That's a pain, and it doesn't work if the error isn't reproducible.
This commit adds support in libpq for regenerating the error message for
an existing error PGresult at any desired verbosity level. This is almost
just a matter of refactoring the existing code into a subroutine, but there
is one bit of possibly-needed information that was not getting put into
PGresults: the text of the last query sent to the server. We must add that
string to the contents of an error PGresult. But we only need to save it
if it might be used, which with the existing error-formatting code only
happens if there is a PG_DIAG_STATEMENT_POSITION error field, which is
probably pretty rare for errors in production situations. So really the
overhead when the feature isn't used should be negligible.

This interface is designed to give an access to WAL for extensions which

Patch implements quad-tree over boxes, naive approach of 2D quad tree will not
work for any non-point objects because splitting space on node is not
efficient. The idea of pathc is treating 2D boxes as 4D points, so,
object will not overlap (in 4D space).
The performance tests reveal that this technique especially beneficial
with too much overlapping objects, so called "spaghetti data".

During scan sometimes it would be very helpful to know some information about
parent node or all ancestor nodes. Right now reconstructedValue could be used
but it's not a right usage of it (range opclass uses that).
traversalValue is arbitrary piece of memory in separate MemoryContext while
reconstructedVale should have the same type as indexed column.
Subsequent patches for range opclass and quad4d tree will use it.

In this mode, the master waits for the transaction to be applied on
the remote side, not just written to disk. That means that you can
count on a transaction started on the standby to see all commits
previously acknowledged by the master.
To make this work, the standby sends a reply after replaying each
commit record generated with synchronous_commit >= 'remote_apply'.
This introduces a small inefficiency: the extra replies will be sent
even by standbys that aren't the current synchronous standby. But
previously-existing synchronous_commit levels make no attempt at all
to optimize which replies are sent based on what the primary cares
about, so this is no worse, and at least avoids any extra replies for
people not using the feature at all.

With the original SQL-function implementation, such cases failed because
we don't support infinite intervals. Converting the function to C lets
us bypass the interval representation, which should be a bit faster as
well as more flexible.

This refines the previous weight range and allows a script to be "turned
off" by passing a zero weight, which is useful when scripting multiple
pgbench runs.
I did not apply the suggested warning when a script uses zero weight; we
use the principle elsewhere that if there's nothing to be done, do
nothing quietly.

You can now do the same thing via \set using the appropriate function,
either random(), random_gaussian(), or random_exponential(), depending
on the desired distribution. This is not backward-compatible, but per

forever.

The new functions are pi(), random(), random_exponential(),
random_gaussian(), and sqrt(). I was worried that this would be
slower than before, but, if anything, it actually turns out to be
slightly faster, because we now express the built-in pgbench scripts
using fewer lines; each \setrandom can be merged into a subsequent
\set.

Fix up check for high-bit-set characters, which provoked "comparison is
always true due to limited range of data type" warnings on some compilers,
and was unlike the way we do it elsewhere anyway. Fix omission of "$"
from the set of valid identifier continuation characters. Get rid of
sanitize_text(), which was utterly inconsistent with any other error report
anywhere in the system, and wasn't even well designed on its own terms
(double-quoting the result string without escaping contained double quotes
doesn't seem very well thought out). Fix up error messages, which didn't
follow the message style guidelines very well, and were overly specific in
situations where the actual mistake might not be what they said. Improve
documentation.
(I started out just intending to fix the compiler warning, but the more
I looked at the patch the less I liked it.)

This enables external code to create access methods. This is useful so
that extensions can add their own access methods which can be formally
tracked for dependencies, so that DROP operates correctly. Also, having
explicit support makes pg_dump work correctly.
Currently only index AMs are supported, but we expect different types to
be added in the future.

To allow multiline SQL commands in scripts, adopt the same rules psql uses
to decide what is the end of a SQL command, to wit, an unquoted semicolon
not encased in parentheses. Do this by importing the same flex lexer that
psql uses, since coping with stuff like dollar-quoted literals is hard to
get right without going the full nine yards.
This makes use of the infrastructure added in commit 0ea9efbe9ec1bf07 to
support independently-written flex lexers scanning the same PsqlScanState
input-buffer data structure. Since that infrastructure isn't very
friendly to ad-hoc parsing code such as strtok(), improve exprscan.l
so that it can parse either whitespace-separated words or expression
tokens, on demand, and rewrite pgbench.c's backslash-command parsing
code to always use the lexer to fetch tokens.
It's still the case that pgbench backslash commands extend to the end
of the line, no more and no less. That could be changed in a fairly
localized way now, and there was some interest in doing so, but it
seems like material for a separate patch.
In passing, make some marginal cleanups in syntax error reporting,
const-ify a few data structures that could use it, and run some of
this code through pgindent.
I can't tell whether the MSVC build scripts need to be taught explicitly
about the changes here or not, but the buildfarm will soon tell us.

Previously, all scripts had the same probability of being chosen when
multiple of them were specified via -b, -f, -N, -S. With this commit,
-b and -f now search for an "@" in the script name and use the integer
found after it as the drawing probability for that script.
(One disadvantage is that if you have script whose names contain @, you
are now forced to specify "@1" at the end; otherwise the name's @ is
confused with a weight separator. We don't expect many pgbench script
with @ in their names in the wild, so this shouldn't be too serious a
problem.)
While at it, rework the interface between addScript, process_file,
process_builtin, and findBuiltin. It had gotten a bit out of hand with
recent commits.

We used to require the server key file to have permissions 0600 or less
for best security. But some systems (such as Debian) have certificate
and key files managed by the operating system that can be shared with
other services. In those cases, the "postgres" user is made a member of
a special group that has access to those files, and the server key file
has permissions 0640. To accommodate that kind of setup, also allow the
key file to have permissions 0640 but only if owned by root.

The distinction between "archive" and "hot_standby" existed only because
at the time "hot_standby" was added, there was some uncertainty about
stability. This is now a long time ago. We would like to move forward
with simplifying the replication configuration, but this distinction is
in the way, because a primary server cannot tell (without asking a
standby or predicting the future) which one of these would be the
appropriate level.
Pick a new name for the combined setting to make it clearer that it
covers all (non-logical) backup and replication uses. The old values
are still accepted but are converted internally.
