* NOTES
Replace our traditional initial-catalog-data format with a better design. Historically, the initial catalog data to be installed during bootstrap has been written in DATA() lines in the catalog header files. This had lots of disadvantages: the format was badly underdocumented, it was very difficult to edit the data in any mechanized way, and due to the lack of any abstraction the data was verbose, hard to read/understand, and easy to get wrong. Hence, move this data into separate ".dat" files and represent it in a way that can easily be read and rewritten by Perl scripts. The new format is essentially "key => value" for each column; while it's a bit repetitive, explicit labeling of each value makes the data far more readable and less error-prone. Provide a way to abbreviate entries by omitting field values that match a specified default value for their column. This allows removal of a large amount of repetitive boilerplate and also lowers the barrier to adding new columns. Also teach genbki.pl how to translate symbolic OID references into numeric OIDs for more cases than just "regproc"-like pg_proc references. It can now do that for regprocedure-like references (thus solving the problem that regproc is ambiguous for overloaded functions), operators, types, opfamilies, opclasses, and access methods. Use this to turn nearly all OID cross-references in the initial data into symbolic form. This represents a very large step forward in readability and error resistance of the initial catalog data. It should also reduce the difficulty of renumbering OID assignments in uncommitted patches. Also, solve the longstanding problem that frontend code that would like to use OID macros and other information from the catalog headers often had difficulty with backend-only code in the headers. To do this, arrange for all generated macros, plus such other declarations as we deem fit, to be placed in "derived" header files that are safe for frontend inclusion. (Once clients migrate to using these pg_*_d.h headers, it will be possible to get rid of the pg_*_fn.h headers, which only exist to quarantine code away from clients. That is left for follow-on patches, however.) The now-automatically-generated macros include the Anum_xxx and Natts_xxx constants that we used to have to update by hand when adding or removing catalog columns. Replace the former manual method of generating OID macros for pg_type entries with an automatic method, ensuring that all built-in types have OID macros. (But note that this patch does not change the way that OID macros for pg_proc entries are built and used. It's not clear that making that match the other catalogs would be worth extra code churn.) Add SGML documentation explaining what the new data format is and how to work with it. Despite being a very large change in the catalog headers, there is no catversion bump here, because postgres.bki and related output files haven't changed at all. John Naylor, based on ideas from various people; review and minor additional coding by me; previous review by Alvaro Herrera Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAJVSVGWO48JbbwXkJz_yBFyGYW-M9YWxnPdxJBUosDC9ou_F0Q@mail.gmail.com

Changes pg_trigger and extend pg_rewrite in order to allow triggers and rules to be defined with different, per session controllable, behaviors for replication purposes. This will allow replication systems like Slony-I and, as has been stated on pgsql-hackers, other products to control the firing mechanism of triggers and rewrite rules without modifying the system catalog directly. The firing mechanisms are controlled by a new superuser-only GUC variable, session_replication_role, together with a change to pg_trigger.tgenabled and a new column pg_rewrite.ev_enabled. Both columns are a single char data type now (tgenabled was a bool before). The possible values in these attributes are: 'O' - Trigger/Rule fires when session_replication_role is "origin" (default) or "local". This is the default behavior. 'D' - Trigger/Rule is disabled and fires never 'A' - Trigger/Rule fires always regardless of the setting of session_replication_role 'R' - Trigger/Rule fires when session_replication_role is "replica" The GUC variable can only be changed as long as the system does not have any cached query plans. This will prevent changing the session role and accidentally executing stored procedures or functions that have plans cached that expand to the wrong query set due to differences in the rule firing semantics. The SQL syntax for changing a triggers/rules firing semantics is ALTER TABLE <tabname> <when> TRIGGER|RULE <name>; <when> ::= ENABLE | ENABLE ALWAYS | ENABLE REPLICA | DISABLE psql's \d command as well as pg_dump are extended in a backward compatible fashion.

Phase 2 of pgindent updates. Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments following #endif to not obey the general rule. Commit e3860ffa4dd0dad0dd9eea4be9cc1412373a8c89 wasn't actually using the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after. Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else. That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.
