Previously this was allowed, but the collation effectively vanished
into the ether because of the way lookup_collation() works: you could
not use the collation, nor even drop it. Seems better to give an
error up front than to leave the user wondering why it doesn't work.
(Because this test is in DefineCollation not CreateCollation, it does
not prevent pg_import_system_collations from creating ICU collations,
regardless of the initially-chosen encoding.)

Check for conflicting or redundant options, as we do for most other
commands. Specifying any option more than once is at best redundant,
and quite likely indicates a bug in the user's code.
While at it, improve the error for conflicting locale options by
adding detail text (the same as for CREATE DATABASE).

"SELECT pg_import_system_collations(0)" caused an assertion failure.
With a random nonzero argument --- or indeed with zero, in non-assert
builds --- it would happily make pg_collation entries with garbage
values of collnamespace. These are harmless as far as I can tell
(unless maybe the OID happens to become used for a schema, later on?).
In any case this isn't a security issue, since the function is
superuser-only. But it seems like a gotcha for unwary DBAs, so let's
add a check that the given OID belongs to some schema.
Back-patch to v10 where this function was introduced.
Instead of an unsightly internal "cache lookup failed" message, just
return NULL for bad OIDs, as is the convention for other similar things.

This adds a flag "deterministic" to collations. If that is false,
such a collation disables various optimizations that assume that
strings are equal only if they are byte-wise equal. That then allows
use cases such as case-insensitive or accent-insensitive comparisons
or handling of strings with different Unicode normal forms.
This functionality is only supported with the ICU provider. At least
glibc doesn't appear to have any locales that work in a
nondeterministic way, so it's not worth supporting this for the libc
provider.
The term "deterministic comparison" in this context is from Unicode
Technical Standard #10
(https://unicode.org/reports/tr10/#Deterministic_Comparison).
This patch makes changes in three areas:
- CREATE COLLATION DDL changes and system catalog changes to support
this new flag.
- Many executor nodes and auxiliary code are extended to track
collations. Previously, this code would just throw away collation
information, because the eventually-called user-defined functions
didn't use it since they only cared about equality, which didn't
need collation information.
- String data type functions that do equality comparisons and hashing
are changed to take the (non-)deterministic flag into account. For
comparison, this just means skipping various shortcuts and tie
breakers that use byte-wise comparison. For hashing, we first need
to convert the input string to a canonical "sort key" using the ICU
analogue of strxfrm().

We have a lot of code in which option names, which from the user's
viewpoint are logically keywords, are passed through the grammar as plain
identifiers, and then matched to string literals during command execution.
This approach avoids making words into lexer keywords unnecessarily. Some
places matched these strings using plain strcmp, some using pg_strcasecmp.
But the latter should be unnecessary since identifiers would have been
downcased on their way through the parser. Aside from any efficiency
concerns (probably not a big factor), the lack of consistency in this area
creates a hazard of subtle bugs due to different places coming to different
conclusions about whether two option names are the same or different.
Hence, standardize on using strcmp() to match any option names that are
expected to have been fed through the parser.
This does create a user-visible behavioral change, which is that while
formerly all of these would work:
alter table foo set (fillfactor = 50);
alter table foo set (FillFactor = 50);
alter table foo set ("fillfactor" = 50);
alter table foo set ("FillFactor" = 50);
now the last case will fail because that double-quoted identifier is
different from the others. However, none of our documentation says that
you can use a quoted identifier in such contexts at all, and we should
discourage doing so since it would break if we ever decide to parse such
constructs as true lexer keywords rather than poor man's substitutes.
So this shouldn't create a significant compatibility issue for users.

Most of our collations code has special handling for the locale names
"C" and "POSIX", allowing those collations to be used whether or not
the system libraries think those locale names are valid, or indeed
whether said libraries even have any locale support. But we missed
handling things that way in CREATE COLLATION. This meant you couldn't
clone the C/POSIX collations, nor explicitly define a new collation
using those locale names, unless the libraries allow it. That's pretty
pointless, as well as being a violation of pg_newlocale_from_collation's
API specification.
The practical effect of this change is quite limited: it allows creating
such collations even on platforms that don't HAVE_LOCALE_T, and it allows
making "POSIX" collation objects on Windows, which before this would only
let you make "C" collation objects. Hence, even though this is a bug fix
IMO, it doesn't seem worth the trouble to back-patch.
In passing, suppress the DROP CASCADE detail messages at the end of the
collation regression test. I'm surprised we've never been bit by
message ordering issues there.

On platforms lacking both locale_t and ICU, collationcmds.c failed
to make any use of its static function is_all_ascii(), thus probably
drawing a compiler warning. Oversight in my commit ddb5fdc06.
Per buildfarm member gaur.
This command used to compute the collencoding entry like when a
completely new collation is created. But for example when copying the
"C" collation, this would then result in a collation that has a
collencoding entry for the current database encoding rather than -1,
thus not making an exact copy. This has probably no practical impact,
but making this change keeps the catalog contents neat.
Reported-by: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>
pg_import_system_collations() refused to create any ICU collations if
the current database's encoding didn't support ICU. This is wrongheaded:
initdb must initialize pg_collation in an encoding-independent way
since it might be used in other databases with different encodings.
The reason for the restriction seems to be that get_icu_locale_comment()
used icu_from_uchar() to convert the UChar-format display name, and that
unsurprisingly doesn't know what to do in unsupported encodings.
But by the same token that the initial catalog contents must be
encoding-independent, we can't allow non-ASCII characters in the comment
strings. So we don't really need icu_from_uchar() here: just check for
Unicode codes outside the ASCII range, and if there are none, the format
conversion is trivial. If there are some, we can simply not install the
comment. (In my testing, this affects only Norwegian Bokmål, which has
given us trouble before.)
For paranoia's sake, also check for non-ASCII characters in ICU locale
names, and skip such locales, as we do for libc locales. I don't
currently have a reason to believe that this will ever reject anything,
but then again the libc maintainers should have known better too.
With just the import changes, ICU collations can be found in pg_collation
in databases with unsupported encodings. This resulted in more or less
clean failures at runtime, but that's not how things act for unsupported
encodings with libc collations. Make it work the same as our traditional
behavior for libc collations by having collation lookup take into account
whether is_encoding_supported_by_icu().
Adjust documentation to match. Also, expand Table 23.1 to show which
encodings are supported by ICU.

The maxResultSize argument of uloc_getDisplayName is the number of
UChars in the output buffer, not the number of bytes. In principle
this could result in a stack smash, although at least in my Fedora 25
install there are no ICU locales with display names long enough to
overrun the buffer. But it's easily proven to be wrong by reducing
the length of displayname to around 20, whereupon a stack smash
does happen.
(This is a rather scary bug, because the same mistake could easily
have been made in other places; but in a quick code search looking
at uses of UChar I could not find any other instances.)
Marco Atzeri reported that initdb would fail if "locale -a" reported
the same locale name more than once. All previous versions of Postgres
implicitly de-duplicated the results of "locale -a", but the rewrite
to move the collation import logic into C had lost that property.
It had also lost the property that locale names matching built-in
collation names were silently ignored.
The simplest way to fix this is to make initdb run the function in
if-not-exists mode, which means that there's no real use-case for
non if-not-exists mode; we might as well just drop the boolean argument
and simplify the function's definition to be "add any collations not
already known". This change also gets rid of some odd corner cases
caused by the fact that aliases were added in if-not-exists mode even
if the function argument said otherwise.
While at it, adjust the behavior so that pg_import_system_collations()
doesn't spew "collation foo already exists, skipping" messages during a
re-run; that's completely unhelpful, especially since there are often
hundreds of them. And make it return a count of the number of collations
it did add, which seems like it might be helpful.
Also, re-integrate the previous coding's property that it would make a
deterministic selection of which alias to use if there were conflicting
possibilities. This would only come into play if "locale -a" reports
multiple equivalent locale names, say "de_DE.utf8" and "de_DE.UTF-8",
but that hardly seems out of the question.
In passing, fix incorrect behavior in pg_import_system_collations()'s
ICU code path: it neglected CommandCounterIncrement, which would result
in failures if ICU returns duplicate names, and it would try to create
comments even if a new collation hadn't been created.
Also, reorder operations in initdb so that the 'ucs_basic' collation
is created before calling pg_import_system_collations() not after.
This prevents a failure if "locale -a" were to report a locale named
that. There's no reason to think that that ever happens in the wild,
but the old coding would have survived it, so let's be equally robust.

Callers of icu_to_uchar() neglected to pfree the result string when done
with it. This results in catastrophic memory leaks in varstr_cmp(),
because of our prevailing assumption that btree comparison functions don't
leak memory. For safety, make all the call sites clean up leaks, though
I suspect that we could get away without it in formatting.c. I audited
callers of icu_from_uchar() as well, but found no places that seemed to
have a comparable issue.
Add function API specifications for icu_to_uchar() and icu_from_uchar();
the lack of any thought-through specification is perhaps not unrelated
to the existence of this bug in the first place. Fix icu_to_uchar()
to guarantee a nul-terminated result; although no existing caller appears
to care, the fact that it would have been nul-terminated except in
extreme corner cases seems ideally designed to bite someone on the rear
someday. Fix ucnv_fromUChars() destCapacity argument --- in the worst
case, that could perhaps have led to a non-nul-terminated result, too.
Fix icu_from_uchar() to have a more reasonable definition of the function
result --- no callers are actually paying attention, so this isn't a live
bug, but it's certainly sloppily designed. Const-ify icu_from_uchar()'s
input string for consistency.
That is not the end of what needs to be done to these functions, but
it's as much as I have the patience for right now.

Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they
flow past the right margin.
By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are
within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding
left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the
continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin,
then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin,
if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of
the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations
unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column
limit.
This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers.
Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized
lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren.

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 e3860ffa4d 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.

Add a column collprovider to pg_collation that determines which library
provides the collation data. The existing choices are default and libc,
and this adds an icu choice, which uses the ICU4C library.
The pg_locale_t type is changed to a union that contains the
provider-specific locale handles. Users of locale information are
changed to look into that struct for the appropriate handle to use.
Also add a collversion column that records the version of the collation
when it is created, and check at run time whether it is still the same.
This detects potentially incompatible library upgrades that can corrupt
indexes and other structures. This is currently only supported by
ICU-provided collations.
initdb initializes the default collation set as before from the `locale
-a` output but also adds all available ICU locales with a "-x-icu"
appended.
Currently, ICU-provided collations can only be explicitly named
collations. The global database locales are still always libc-provided.

pg_import_system_locales, but some build farm members failed because of

This resulted in failures depending on the order of "locale -a" output.
The original coding in initdb sorted the results, but that should be
unnecessary as long as "locale -a" doesn't print duplicate names. The
original entries will then all be non-dups, and while we might generate
duplicate aliases by stripping, they should be for different encodings and
thus not conflict. Even if the latter assumption fails somehow, it won't
