Add a script to automatically generate the node support functions
(copy, equal, out, and read, as well as the node tags enum) from the
struct definitions.
For each of the four node support files, it creates two include files,
e.g., copyfuncs.funcs.c and copyfuncs.switch.c, to include in the main
file. All the scaffolding of the main file stays in place.
I have tried to mostly make the coverage of the output match what is
currently there. For example, one could now do out/read coverage of
utility statement nodes, but I have manually excluded those for now.
The reason is mainly that it's easier to diff the before and after,
and adding a bunch of stuff like this might require a separate
analysis and review.
Subtyping (TidScan -> Scan) is supported.
For the hard cases, you can just write a manual function and exclude
generating one. For the not so hard cases, there is a way of
annotating struct fields to get special behaviors. For example,
pg_node_attr(equal_ignore) has the field ignored in equal functions.
(In this patch, I have only ifdef'ed out the code to could be removed,
mainly so that it won't constantly have merge conflicts. It will be
deleted in a separate patch. All the code comments that are worth
keeping from those sections have already been moved to the header
files where the structs are defined.)

PostgreSQL contains the implementation of the red-black tree. The red-black
tree is the ordered data structure, and one of its advantages is the ability
to do inequality searches. This commit adds rbt_find_less() and
rbt_find_great() functions implementing these searches. While these searches
aren't yet used in the core code, they might be useful for extensions.

Commit 9a974cbcba005256a19991203583a94b4f9a21a9 did this for user
tables, but pg_upgrade treats pg_largeobject as a user table, and so
needs the same treatment. Without this fix, if you rewrite the
pg_largeobject table and then perform an upgrade with pg_upgrade, the
table will apparently be empty on the new cluster, while all of your
objects will end up with an orphaned file.
With this fix, instead of the old cluster's pg_largeobject files ending
up orphaned, the original files fro the new cluster do. That's mostly
harmless because we expect the table to be empty, but we might want
to arrange to remove the as part of the upgrade. Since we're still
debating the best way of doing that, I (rhaas) have decided to postpone
dealing with that problem and get the basic fix committed.

This CPU architecture has been discontinued. We already removed HP-UX
support, we never supported Windows/Itanium, and the open source
operating systems that a vintage hardware owner might hope to run have
all either ended Itanium support or never fully released support (NetBSD
may eventually). The extra code we carry for this rare ISA is now
untested. It seems like a good time to remove it.

Since there is a major rewrite of the build system in the pipeline for

When locking a specific named relation for a FOR [KEY] UPDATE/SHARE
clause, transformLockingClause() finds the relation to lock by
scanning the rangetable for an RTE with a matching eref->aliasname.
However, it failed to account for the visibility rules of a join RTE.
If a join RTE doesn't have a user-supplied alias, it will have a
generated eref->aliasname of "unnamed_join" that is not visible as a
relation name in the parse namespace. Such an RTE needs to be skipped,
otherwise it might be found in preference to a regular base relation
with a user-supplied alias of "unnamed_join", preventing it from being
locked.
In addition, if a join RTE doesn't have a user-supplied alias, but
does have a join_using_alias, then the RTE needs to be matched using
that alias rather than the generated eref->aliasname, otherwise a
misleading "relation not found" error will be reported rather than a
"join cannot be locked" error.
Backpatch all the way, except for the second part which only goes back
to 14, where JOIN USING aliases were added.

This commit bumps the runtime value of _WIN32_WINNT to be 0x0A00 for any
builds on Windows. Hence, this makes Windows 10 the minimal requirement
when running PostgreSQL under WIN32, be it for builds of Cygwin, MinGW
or Visual Studio.
The previous minimal runtime version was either Windows Vista when
building with at least Visual Studio 2015 or Windows XP for the rest.
Windows 10 is the most modern version supported by Microsoft, and per
discussion, as we don't have buildfarm members that run older versions
anymore, this is the minimal supported version that suits better for our
needs. This will actually make easier the development of some patches,
two being async I/O and large page handling by avoiding a lot of
compatibility gotchas, on platforms that have most likely few users
anyway.
It is possible to remove MIN_WINNT in win32.h and the macros
IsWindowsXXXOrGreater() that were used in the code at runtime to check
which version of Windows was getting used. The change in pg_locale.c
comes from Juan. Note that all my tests passed, and that the CI is
green. The buildfarm will quickly tell if this needs more adjustments.

40af10b57 changed things so we make use of a generation memory context for
storing tuples to be sorted by tuplesort.c. That change does not play
nicely with the changes made in 9f03ca915 (back in 2014). That commit
changed things so that index_form_tuple() is called while switched into
the tuplestore's tuplecontext. In order to fetch the tuple from the index,
index_form_tuple() must do various memory allocations which are unrelated
to the storage of the final returned tuple. Although all of these
allocations are pfree'd, the fact that we now use a generation context
means that the memory for these pfree'd allocations won't be used again by
any other allocation due to generation.c's lack of freelists. This could
result in sorts used for building indexes exceeding maintenance_work_mem
by a very large amount.
Here we fix it so we no longer allocate anything apart from the tuple
itself into the generation context by adding a new version of
index_form_tuple named index_form_tuple_context, which can be called to
specify the MemoryContext to allocate the tuple into.

There's no reason anymore to only drop subscription stats if associated with a
slot, now that stats drops are transactional. And since there's now no other
cleanup of stats, this would lead to stats for slot-less subscriptions to get

Additionally, the comment referring to autovacuum cleaning up stats was
clearly outdated.

We have been using the term RelFileNode to refer to either (1) the
integer that is used to name the sequence of files for a certain relation
within the directory set aside for that tablespace/database combination;
or (2) that value plus the OIDs of the tablespace and database; or
occasionally (3) the whole series of files created for a relation
based on those values. Using the same name for more than one thing is
confusing.
Replace RelFileNode with RelFileNumber when we're talking about just the
single number, i.e. (1) from above, and with RelFileLocator when we're
talking about all the things that are needed to locate a relation's files
on disk, i.e. (2) from above. In the places where we refer to (3) as
a relfilenode, instead refer to "relation storage".
Since there is a ton of SQL code in the world that knows about
pg_class.relfilenode, don't change the name of that column, or of other
SQL-facing things that derive their name from it.
On the other hand, do adjust closely-related internal terminology. For
example, the structure member names dbNode and spcNode appear to be
derived from the fact that the structure itself was called RelFileNode,
so change those to dbOid and spcOid. Likewise, various variables with
names like rnode and relnode get renamed appropriately, according to
how they're being used in context.
Hopefully, this is clearer than before. It is also preparation for
future patches that intend to widen the relfilenumber fields from its
current width of 32 bits. Variables that store a relfilenumber are now
declared as type RelFileNumber rather than type Oid; right now, these
are the same, but that can now more easily be changed.

50e17ad28 increased the size of ExprEvalStep from 64 bytes up to 88 bytes.
Lots of effort was spent during the development of the current expression
evaluation code to make an instance of this struct as small as possible.
Making this struct larger than needed reduces CPU cache efficiency during
expression evaluation which causes noticeable slowdowns during query
execution.
In order to reduce the size of the struct, here we remove the fn_addr
field. The values from this field can be obtained via fcinfo, just with
some extra pointer dereferencing. The extra indirection does not seem to
cause any noticeable slowdowns.
Various other fields have been moved into the ScalarArrayOpExprHashTable
struct. These fields are only used when the ScalarArrayOpExprHashTable
pointer has already been dereferenced, so no additional pointer
dereferences occur for these. Here we also make hash_fcinfo_data the last
field in ScalarArrayOpExprHashTable so that we can avoid a further pointer
dereference to get the FunctionCallInfoBaseData. This also saves a call to
palloc().
50e17ad28 was added in 14, but it's too late to adjust the size of the
ExprEvalStep in that version, so here we just backpatch to 15, which is
currently in beta.

macOS has traditionally used extension .dylib for shared libraries
(used at build time) and .so for dynamically loaded modules (used by
dlopen()). This complicates the build system a bit. Also, Meson uses
.dylib for both, so it would be worth unifying this in order to be
able to get equal build output.
There doesn't appear to be any reason to use any particular extension
for dlopened modules, since dlopen() will accept anything and
PostgreSQL is well-factored to be able to deal with any extension.
Other software packages that I have handy appear to be about 50/50
split on which extension they use for their plugins. So it seems
possible to change this safely.

Previously the timer was enabled whenever there were any pending stats after
executing a statement, just to then be disabled again when not idle
anymore. That lead to an increase in GetCurrentTimestamp() calls from within
timeout.c compared to 14.
To avoid that increase, leave the timer enabled until stats are reported,
rather than until idle. The timer is only disabled once the pending stats have
been reported.
For me this fixes the increase in GetCurrentTimestamp() calls, there now are
fewer calls in 15 than in 14, in the previously slowed down workload.

We were going into IDLE state too soon when executing queries via
PQsendQuery in pipeline mode, causing several scenarios to misbehave in
different ways -- most notably, as reported by Daniele Varrazzo, that a
warning message is produced by libpq:
message type 0x33 arrived from server while idle
But it is also possible, if queries are sent and results consumed not in
lockstep, for the expected mediating NULL result values from PQgetResult
to be lost (a problem which has not been reported, but which is more
serious).
Fix this by introducing two new concepts: one is a command queue element
PGQUERY_CLOSE to tell libpq to wait for the CloseComplete server
response to the Close message that is sent by PQsendQuery. Because the
application is not expecting any PGresult from this, the mechanism to
consume it is a bit hackish.
The other concept, authored by Horiguchi-san, is a PGASYNC_PIPELINE_IDLE
state for libpq's state machine to differentiate "really idle" from
merely "the idle state that occurs in between reading results from the
server for elements in the pipeline". This makes libpq not go fully
IDLE when the libpq command queue contains entries; in normal cases, we
only go IDLE once at the end of the pipeline, when the server response
to the final SYNC message is received. (However, there are corner cases
it doesn't fix, such as terminating the query sequence by
PQsendFlushRequest instead of PQpipelineSync; this sort of scenario is
what requires PGQUERY_CLOSE bit above.)
This last bit helps make the libpq state machine clearer; in particular
we can get rid of an ugly hack in pqParseInput3 to avoid considering
IDLE as such when the command queue contains entries.
A new test mode is added to libpq_pipeline.c to tickle some related
problematic cases.

durable_rename_excl() attempts to avoid overwriting any existing files
by using link() and unlink(), and it falls back to rename() on some
platforms (aka WIN32), which offers no such overwrite protection. Most
callers use durable_rename_excl() just in case there is an existing
file, but in practice there shouldn't be one (see below for more
details).
Furthermore, failures during durable_rename_excl() can result in
multiple hard links to the same file. As per Nathan's tests, it is
possible to end up with two links to the same file in pg_wal after a
crash just before unlink() during WAL recycling. Specifically, the test
produced links to the same file for the current WAL file and the next
one because the half-recycled WAL file was re-recycled upon restarting,
leading to WAL corruption.
This change replaces all the calls of durable_rename_excl() to
durable_rename(). This removes the protection against accidentally
overwriting an existing file, but some platforms are already living
without it and ordinarily there shouldn't be one. The function itself
is left around in case any extensions are using it. It will be removed
on HEAD via a follow-up commit.
Here is a summary of the existing callers of durable_rename_excl() (see
second discussion link at the bottom), replaced by this commit. First,
basic_archive used it to avoid overwriting an archive concurrently
created by another server, but as mentioned above, it will still
overwrite files on some platforms. Second, xlog.c uses it to recycle
past WAL segments, where an overwrite should not happen (origin of the
change at f0e37a8) because there are protections about the WAL segment
to select when recycling an entry. The third and last area is related
to the write of timeline history files. writeTimeLineHistory() will
write a new timeline history file at the end of recovery on promotion,
so there should be no such files for the same timeline.
What remains is writeTimeLineHistoryFile(), that can be used in parallel
by a WAL receiver and the startup process, and some digging of the
buildfarm shows that EEXIST from a WAL receiver can happen with an error
of "could not link file \"pg_wal/xlogtemp.NN\" to \"pg_wal/MM.history\",
which would cause an automatic restart of the WAL receiver as it is
promoted to FATAL, hence this should improve the stability of the WAL
receiver as rename() would overwrite an existing TLI history file
already fetched by the startup process at recovery.
This is a bug fix, but knowing the unlikeliness of the problem involving
one or more crashes at an exceptionally bad moment, no backpatch is
done. Also, I want to be careful with such changes (aaa3aed did the
opposite of this change by removing HAVE_WORKING_LINK so as Windows
would do a link() rather than a rename() but this was not
concurrent-safe). A backpatch could be revisited in the future. This
is the second time this change is attempted, ccfbd92 being the first
one, but this time no assertions are added for the case of a TLI history
file written concurrently by the WAL receiver or the startup process
because we can expect one to exist (some of the TAP tests are able to
trigger with a proper timing).

Some routines open-coded the construction of RowDescription messages.
Instead, we have support for doing this using tuple descriptors and
DestRemoteSimple, so use that instead.

Use it for RelationSyncEntry->streamed_txns, which is currently using an
integer list.
The API support is not complete, not because it is hard to write but
because it's unclear that it's worth the code space, there being so
little use of XID lists.

Attempting such an operation would already fail, but in various and
confusing ways. For example, while in recovery, some elog() messages
would be reported, but these should never be user-facing. This commit
restricts any write operations done on large objects in a read-only
context, so as the errors generated are more user-friendly. This is per
the discussion done with Tom Lane and Robert Haas.
Some regression tests are added to check the case of all the SQL
functions working on large objects (including an update of the test's
alternate output).

Amendment to ec40f3422412cfdc140b5d3f67db7fd2dac0f1e2: We also need to
change the way the datum is supplied to int8. Otherwise, the value is
still cut off as an int4, and it will crash on 32-bit platforms.

It was int4, but in the other replication commands, timelines are
returned as int8.
