This option, or its long form --set, sets the GUC "name" to "value".
The setting applies in the bootstrap and standalone servers run by
initdb, and is also written into the generated postgresql.conf.
This can save an extra editing step when creating a new cluster,
but the real use-case is for coping with situations where the
bootstrap server fails to start due to environmental issues;
for example, if it's necessary to force huge_pages to off.

Check in CREATE DATABASE and initdb that the selected encoding is
supported by ICU. Before, they would pass but users would later get
an error from the server when they tried to use the database.
Also document that initdb sets the encoding to UTF8 by default if the
ICU locale provider is chosen.

createdb() didn't check for collation attributes validity, which has
to be done explicitly on ICU < 54. It also forgot to close the ICU collator
opened during the check which leaks some memory.
To fix both, add a new check_icu_locale() that does all the appropriate
verification and close the ICU collator.
initdb also had some partial check for ICU < 54. To have consistent error
reporting across major ICU versions, and get rid of the need to include ucol.h,
remove the partial check there. The backend will report an error if needed
during the post-boostrap iniitialization phase.

This adds the option to use ICU as the default locale provider for
either the whole cluster or a database. New options for initdb,
createdb, and CREATE DATABASE are used to select this.
Since some (legacy) code still uses the libc locale facilities
directly, we still need to set the libc global locale settings even if
ICU is otherwise selected. So pg_database now has three
locale-related fields: the existing datcollate and datctype, which are
always set, and a new daticulocale, which is only set if ICU is
selected. A similar change is made in pg_collation for consistency,
but in that case, only the libc-related fields or the ICU-related
field is set, never both.

Rather than doing manual book keeping to plan the number of tests to run
in each TAP suite, conclude each run with done_testing() summing up the
the number of tests that ran. This removes the need for maintaning and
updating the plan count at the expense of an accurate count of remaining
during the test suite runtime.
This patch has been discussed a number of times, often in the context of
other patches which updates tests, so a larger number of discussions can
be found in the archives.

The five modules in our TAP test framework all had names in the top
level namespace. This is unwise because, even though we're not
exporting them to CPAN, the names can leak, for example if they are
exported by the RPM build process. We therefore move the modules to the
PostgreSQL::Test namespace. In the process PostgresNode is renamed to
Cluster, and TestLib is renamed to Utils. PostgresVersion becomes simply
PostgreSQL::Version, to avoid possible confusion about what it's the
version of.

The current tool name is too restrictive and focuses only on verifying

are planned to be added, switch to a more generic name. Documentation

A collection of typos I happened to spot while reading code, as well as
grepping for common mistakes.
Backpatch to all supported versions, as applicable, to avoid conflicts
when backporting other commits in the future.
Allow the cluster to be optionally init'd with read access for the
group.
This means a relatively non-privileged user can perform a backup of the
cluster without requiring write privileges, which enhances security.
The mode of PGDATA is used to determine whether group permissions are
enabled for directory and file creates. This method was chosen as it's
simple and works well for the various utilities that write into PGDATA.
Changing the mode of PGDATA manually will not automatically change the
mode of all the files contained therein. If the user would like to
enable group access on an existing cluster then changing the mode of all
the existing files will be required. Note that pg_upgrade will
automatically change the mode of all migrated files if the new cluster
is init'd with the -g option.
Tests are included for the backend and all the utilities which operate
on the PG data directory to ensure that the correct mode is set based on
the data directory permissions.

Consolidate directory and file create permissions for tools which work
with the PG data directory by adding a new module (common/file_perm.c)
that contains variables (pg_file_create_mode, pg_dir_create_mode) and
constants to initialize them (0600 for files and 0700 for directories).
Convert mkdir() calls in the backend to MakePGDirectory() if the
original call used default permissions (always the case for regular PG
directories).
Add tests to make sure permissions in PGDATA are set correctly by the
tools which modify the PG data directory.

Use disallowed instead of reserved, cannot instead of can not, and
double quotes instead of single quotes.
Also add a test to cover the bug which started this discussion.
Per discussion with Tom.
The original code was a bit clunky; make it more amenable for further
reuse by creating a new Perl package PostgresNode, which is an
object-oriented representation of a single server, with some support
routines such as init, start, stop, psql. This serves as a better basis
on which to build further test code, and enables writing tests that use
more than one server without too much complication.
This commit modifies a lot of the existing test files, mostly to remove
explicit calls to system commands (pg_ctl) replacing them with method
calls of a PostgresNode object. The result is quite a bit more
straightforward.
Also move some initialization code to BEGIN and INIT blocks instead of
having it straight in as top-level code.
This commit also introduces package RecursiveCopy so that we can copy
whole directories without having to depend on packages that may not be
present on vanilla Perl 5.8 installations.
I also ran perltidy on the modified files, which changes some code sites
that are not otherwise touched by this patch. I tried to avoid this,
but it ended up being more trouble than it's worth.

Commit c67a86f7da caught most of these,
but this negative test escaped notice. The test did pass, for the wrong
reason, under affected configurations.
Michael Paquier
Some of the TAP tests were supposing that PG programs would accept switches
after non-switch arguments on their command lines. While GNU getopt_long()
does allow that, our own implementation does not, and it's nowhere
suggested in our documentation that such cases should work. Adjust the
tests to use only the documented syntax.
Back-patch to 9.4, since without this the TAP tests fail when run with
src/port's getopt_long() implementation.
