Implement multivariate n-distinct coefficients Add support for explicitly declared statistic objects (CREATE STATISTICS), allowing collection of statistics on more complex combinations that individual table columns. Companion commands DROP STATISTICS and ALTER STATISTICS ... OWNER TO / SET SCHEMA / RENAME are added too. All this DDL has been designed so that more statistic types can be added later on, such as multivariate most-common-values and multivariate histograms between columns of a single table, leaving room for permitting columns on multiple tables, too, as well as expressions. This commit only adds support for collection of n-distinct coefficient on user-specified sets of columns in a single table. This is useful to estimate number of distinct groups in GROUP BY and DISTINCT clauses; estimation errors there can cause over-allocation of memory in hashed aggregates, for instance, so it's a worthwhile problem to solve. A new special pseudo-type pg_ndistinct is used. (num-distinct estimation was deemed sufficiently useful by itself that this is worthwhile even if no further statistic types are added immediately; so much so that another version of essentially the same functionality was submitted by Kyotaro Horiguchi: https://postgr.es/m/20150828.173334.114731693.horiguchi.kyotaro@lab.ntt.co.jp though this commit does not use that code.)

Allow memory contexts to have both fixed and variable ident strings. Originally, we treated memory context names as potentially variable in all cases, and therefore always copied them into the context header. Commit 9fa6f00b1 rethought this a little bit and invented a distinction between fixed and variable names, skipping the copy step for the former. But we can make things both simpler and more useful by instead allowing there to be two parts to a context's identification, a fixed "name" and an optional, variable "ident". The name supplied in the context create call is now required to be a compile-time-constant string in all cases, as it is never copied but just pointed to. The "ident" string, if wanted, is supplied later. This is needed because typically we want the ident to be stored inside the context so that it's cleaned up automatically on context deletion; that means it has to be copied into the context before we can set the pointer. The cost of this approach is basically just an additional pointer field in struct MemoryContextData, which isn't much overhead, and is bought back entirely in the AllocSet case by not needing a headerSize field anymore, since we no longer have to cope with variable header length. In addition, we can simplify the internal interfaces for memory context creation still further, saving a few cycles there. And it's no longer true that a custom identifier disqualifies a context from participating in aset.c's freelist scheme, so possibly there's some win on that end. All the places that were using non-compile-time-constant context names are adjusted to put the variable info into the "ident" instead. This allows more effective identification of those contexts in many cases; for example, subsidary contexts of relcache entries are now identified by both type (e.g. "index info") and relname, where before you got only one or the other. Contexts associated with PL function cache entries are now identified more fully and uniformly, too. I also arranged for plancache contexts to use the query source string as their identifier. This is basically free for CachedPlanSources, as they contained a copy of that string already. We pay an extra pstrdup to do it for CachedPlans. That could perhaps be avoided, but it would make things more fragile (since the CachedPlanSource is sometimes destroyed first). I suspect future improvements in error reporting will require CachedPlans to have a copy of that string anyway, so it's not clear that it's worth moving mountains to avoid it now. This also changes the APIs for context statistics routines so that the context-specific routines no longer assume that output goes straight to stderr, nor do they know all details of the output format. This is useful immediately to reduce code duplication, and it also allows for external code to do something with stats output that's different from printing to stderr. The reason for pushing this now rather than waiting for v12 is that it rethinks some of the API changes made by commit 9fa6f00b1. Seems better for extension authors to endure just one round of API changes not two. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAB=Je-FdtmFZ9y9REHD7VsSrnCkiBhsA4mdsLKSPauwXtQBeNA@mail.gmail.com

Remove WITH OIDS support, change oid catalog column visibility. Previously tables declared WITH OIDS, including a significant fraction of the catalog tables, stored the oid column not as a normal column, but as part of the tuple header. This special column was not shown by default, which was somewhat odd, as it's often (consider e.g. pg_class.oid) one of the more important parts of a row. Neither pg_dump nor COPY included the contents of the oid column by default. The fact that the oid column was not an ordinary column necessitated a significant amount of special case code to support oid columns. That already was painful for the existing, but upcoming work aiming to make table storage pluggable, would have required expanding and duplicating that "specialness" significantly. WITH OIDS has been deprecated since 2005 (commit ff02d0a05280e0). Remove it. Removing includes: - CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE syntax for declaring the table to be WITH OIDS has been removed (WITH (oids[ = true]) will error out) - pg_dump does not support dumping tables declared WITH OIDS and will issue a warning when dumping one (and ignore the oid column). - restoring an pg_dump archive with pg_restore will warn when restoring a table with oid contents (and ignore the oid column) - COPY will refuse to load binary dump that includes oids. - pg_upgrade will error out when encountering tables declared WITH OIDS, they have to be altered to remove the oid column first. - Functionality to access the oid of the last inserted row (like plpgsql's RESULT_OID, spi's SPI_lastoid, ...) has been removed. The syntax for declaring a table WITHOUT OIDS (or WITH (oids = false) for CREATE TABLE) is still supported. While that requires a bit of support code, it seems unnecessary to break applications / dumps that do not use oids, and are explicit about not using them. The biggest user of WITH OID columns was postgres' catalog. This commit changes all 'magic' oid columns to be columns that are normally declared and stored. To reduce unnecessary query breakage all the newly added columns are still named 'oid', even if a table's column naming scheme would indicate 'reloid' or such. This obviously requires adapting a lot code, mostly replacing oid access via HeapTupleGetOid() with access to the underlying Form_pg_*->oid column. The bootstrap process now assigns oids for all oid columns in genbki.pl that do not have an explicit value (starting at the largest oid previously used), only oids assigned later by oids will be above FirstBootstrapObjectId. As the oid column now is a normal column the special bootstrap syntax for oids has been removed. Oids are not automatically assigned during insertion anymore, all backend code explicitly assigns oids with GetNewOidWithIndex(). For the rare case that insertions into the catalog via SQL are called for the new pg_nextoid() function can be used (which only works on catalog tables). The fact that oid columns on system tables are now normal columns means that they will be included in the set of columns expanded by * (i.e. SELECT * FROM pg_class will now include the table's oid, previously it did not). It'd not technically be hard to hide oid column by default, but that'd mean confusing behavior would either have to be carried forward forever, or it'd cause breakage down the line. While it's not unlikely that further adjustments are needed, the scope/invasiveness of the patch makes it worthwhile to get merge this now. It's painful to maintain externally, too complicated to commit after the code code freeze, and a dependency of a number of other patches. Catversion bump, for obvious reasons.

Implement multivariate n-distinct coefficients Add support for explicitly declared statistic objects (CREATE STATISTICS), allowing collection of statistics on more complex combinations that individual table columns. Companion commands DROP STATISTICS and ALTER STATISTICS ... OWNER TO / SET SCHEMA / RENAME are added too. All this DDL has been designed so that more statistic types can be added later on, such as multivariate most-common-values and multivariate histograms between columns of a single table, leaving room for permitting columns on multiple tables, too, as well as expressions. This commit only adds support for collection of n-distinct coefficient on user-specified sets of columns in a single table.

Make pg_statistic and related code account more honestly for collations. When we first put in collations support, we basically punted on teaching pg_statistic, ANALYZE, and the planner selectivity functions about that. They've just used DEFAULT_COLLATION_OID independently of the actual collation of the data. It's time to improve that, so: * Add columns to pg_statistic that record the specific collation associated with each statistics slot. * Teach ANALYZE to use the column's actual collation when comparing values for statistical purposes, and record this in the appropriate slot. (Note that type-specific typanalyze functions are now expected to fill stats->stacoll with the appropriate collation, too.) * Teach assorted selectivity functions to use the actual collation of the stats they are looking at, instead of just assuming it's DEFAULT_COLLATION_OID. This should give noticeably better results in selectivity estimates for columns with nondefault collations, at least for query clauses that use that same collation (which would be the default behavior in most cases). It's still true that comparisons with explicit COLLATE clauses different from the stored data's collation won't be well-estimated, but that's no worse than before. Also, this patch does make the first step towards doing better with that, which is that it's now theoretically possible to collect stats for a collation other than the column's own collation.

* statext_mcv_clauselist_selectivity
* Estimate clauses using the best multi-column statistics.
*
* Applies available extended (multi-column) statistics on a table. There may
* be multiple applicable statistics (with respect to the clauses), in which
* case we use greedy approach. In each round we select the best statistic on
* a table (measured by the number of attributes extracted from the clauses
* and covered by it), and compute the selectivity for the supplied clauses.
* We repeat this process with the remaining clauses (if any), until none of
* the available statistics can be used.
*
* One of the main challenges with using MCV lists is how to extrapolate the
* estimate to the data not covered by the MCV list. To do that, we compute
* not only the "MCV selectivity" (selectivities for MCV items matching the
* supplied clauses), but also a couple of derived selectivities:
*
* - simple selectivity: Computed without extended statistic, i.e. as if the
* columns/clauses were independent
*
* - base selectivity: Similar to simple selectivity, but is computed using
* the extended statistic by adding up the base frequencies (that we compute
* and store for each MCV item) of matching MCV items.
*
* - total selectivity: Selectivity covered by the whole MCV list.
*
* - other selectivity: A selectivity estimate for data not covered by the MCV
* list (i.e. satisfying the clauses, but not common enough to make it into
* the MCV list)
*
* Note: While simple and base selectivities are defined in a quite similar
* way, the values are computed differently and are not therefore equal. The
* simple selectivity is computed as a product of per-clause estimates, while
* the base selectivity is computed by adding up base frequencies of matching
* items of the multi-column MCV list. So the values may differ for two main
* reasons - (a) the MCV list may not cover 100% of the data and (b) some of
* the MCV items did not match the estimated clauses.
*
* As both (a) and (b) reduce the base selectivity value, it generally holds
* that (simple_selectivity >= base_selectivity). If the MCV list covers all
* the data, the values may be equal.
*
* So, (simple_selectivity - base_selectivity) is an estimate for the part
* not covered by the MCV list, and (mcv_selectivity - base_selectivity) may
* be seen as a correction for the part covered by the MCV list. Those two
* statements are actually equivalent.
*
* Note: Due to rounding errors and minor differences in how the estimates
* are computed, the inequality may not always hold. Which is why we clamp
* the selectivities to prevent strange estimate (negative etc.).
*
* 'estimatedclauses' is an input/output parameter. We set bits for the
* 0-based 'clauses' indexes we estimate for and also skip clause items that
* already have a bit set.
