pg_input_error_info() is now a SQL function able to return a row with
more than just the error message generated for incorrect data type
inputs when these are able to handle soft failures, returning more
contents of ErrorData, as of:
- The error message (same as before).
- The error detail, if set.
- The error hint, if set.
- SQL error code.
All the regression tests that relied on pg_input_error_message() are
updated to reflect the effects of the rename.

Convert box_in, circle_in, line_in, lseg_in, path_in, point_in,
and poly_in to the new style.
line_in still throws hard errors for overflows/underflows that can occur
when the input is specified as two points rather than in the canonical
"Ax + By + C = 0" style. I'm not too concerned about that: it won't be
reached in normal dump/restore cases, and it's fairly debatable that
such conversion should ever have been made part of a type input function
in the first place. But in any case, I don't want to extend the soft
error conventions into float.h without more discussion than this patch
has had.

Commit c4c340088 changed geometric operators to use float4 and float8
functions, and handle NaN's in a better way. The circle sameness test
had a typo in the code which resulted in all comparisons with the left
circle having a NaN radius considered same.
postgres=# select '<(0,0),NaN>'::circle ~= '<(0,0),1>'::circle;
?column?
----------
t
(1 row)
This fixes the sameness test to consider the radius of both the left
and right circle.

Backpatch-through: v12
The idea behind this patch is to make it possible to run individual
test scripts without running the entire core test suite. Making all
the scripts completely independent would involve a massive rewrite,
and would probably be worse for coverage of things like concurrent DDL.
So this patch just does what seems practical with limited changes.
The net effect is that any test script can be run after running
limited earlier dependencies:
* all scripts depend on test_setup
* many scripts depend on create_index
* other dependencies are few in number, and are documented in
the parallel_schedule file.
To accomplish this, I chose a small number of commonly-used tables
and moved their creation and filling into test_setup. Later scripts
are expected not to modify these tables' data contents, for fear of
affecting other scripts' results. Also, our former habit of declaring
all C functions in one place is now gone in favor of declaring them
where they're used, if that's just one script, or in test_setup if
necessary.
There's more that could be done to remove some of the remaining
inter-script dependencies, but significantly more-invasive changes
would be needed, and at least for now it doesn't seem worth it.

Nobody has filled in these stubs for upwards of twenty years,
so it's time to drop the idea that they might get implemented
any day now. The associated pg_operator and pg_proc entries
are just confusing wastes of space.

geo_ops.c contains half a dozen functions that are just stubs throwing
ERRCODE_FEATURE_NOT_SUPPORTED. Since it's been like that for more
than twenty years, there's clearly not a lot of interest in filling in
the stubs. However, I'm uncomfortable with deleting poly_distance(),
since every other geometric type supports a distance-to-another-object-
of-the-same-type function. We can easily add this capability by
cribbing from poly_overlap() and path_distance().
It's possible that the (existing) test case for this will show some
numeric instability, but hopefully the buildfarm will expose it if so.
In passing, improve the documentation to try to explain why polygons
are distinct from closed paths in the first place.

Many older tests where written in a style like
SELECT '' AS two, i.* FROM INT2_TBL
where the first column indicated the number of expected result rows.
This has gotten increasingly out of date, as the test data fixtures
have expanded, so a lot of these were wrong and misleading. Moreover,
this style isn't really necessary, since the psql output already shows
the number of result rows.
To clean this up, remove all those extra columns.

Since we're assuming IEEE floats these days, there seems little
reason not to do this. It has the advantage that when the slope is
computed as infinite due to the presence of Inf coordinates, we get
saner behavior than before from line_construct(), and thence also
in some dependent operations such as finding the closest point.
Also fix line_construct() to special-case slope zero. The previous
coding got the right answer in most cases, but it could compute
C as NaN when the point has Inf coordinates.

"FPeq(infinity, infinity)" returned false, on account of getting NaN
when it subtracts the two inputs. Fix that by adding a separate
check for exact equality.
FPle() and FPge() similarly got the wrong answer for two like-signed
infinities. In those cases, we can just rearrange the comparisons
to avoid potentially subtracting infinities.
While the sibling functions FPne() etc accidentally gave the right
answers even with the internal NaN results, it seems best to make
similar adjustments to them to avoid depending on this.
FPeq() has to be converted to an inline function to avoid double
evaluations of its arguments, and I did the same for the others
just for consistency.
In passing, make the handling of NaN cases in line_eq() and
point_eq_point() simpler and easier to reason about, and perhaps
faster.
This results in just one visible regression test change: slope()
now gives DBL_MAX for two inputs of (inf,1e300), which is consistent
with what it does for (1e300,inf), so that seems like a bug fix.

Add another edge-case value to "point_tbl", and add a test for
the line(point, point) function.
Some of the behaviors exposed here are wrong, but the idea of
committing this separately is to memorialize what we were getting,
and to allow easier inspection of the behavior changes caused by
upcoming patches.

This commit significantly increases test coverage of geo_ops.c, adding
tests for various issues addressed by 2e2a392de3 (which went undetected
for a long time, at least partially due to not being covered).
This also removes alternative results expecting -0 on some platforms.
Instead the functions are should return the same results everywhere,
transforming -0 to 0 if needed.
The tests are added to geometric.sql file, sorted by the left hand side
of the operators. There are many cross datatype operators, so this seems
like the best solution.

This commit adds the following functions:
box(point) -> box
bound_box(box, box) -> box
inet_same_family(inet, inet) -> bool
inet_merge(inet, inet) -> cidr
range_merge(anyrange, anyrange) -> anyrange
The first of these is also used to implement a new assignment cast from
point to box.
These functions are the first part of a base to implement an "inclusion"

an explicit model of rescan costs being different from first-time costs.
The costing of Material nodes in particular now has some visible relationship
to the actual runtime behavior, where before it was essentially fantasy.
This also fixes up a couple of places where different materialized plan types
were treated differently for no very good reason (probably just oversights).
A couple of the regression tests are affected, because the planner now chooses
to put the other relation on the inside of a nestloop-with-materialize.
So far as I can see both changes are sane, and the planner is now more
consistently following the expectation that it should prefer to materialize
the smaller of two relations.
Per a recent discussion with Robert Haas.
Standard English uses "may", "can", and "might" in different ways:
may - permission, "You may borrow my rake."
can - ability, "I can lift that log."
might - possibility, "It might rain today."
Unfortunately, in conversational English, their use is often mixed, as
in, "You may use this variable to do X", when in fact, "can" is a better
choice. Similarly, "It may crash" is better stated, "It might crash".

pretty rudimentary; it does not yet know how to plan mergejoins with
nondefault ordering options. The documentation is pretty rudimentary, too.
I'll work on improving that stuff later.
Note incompatible change from prior behavior: ORDER BY ... USING will now be
rejected if the operator is not a less-than or greater-than member of some
btree opclass. This prevents less-than-sane behavior if an operator that
doesn't actually define a proper sort ordering is selected.
agreed these symbols are less easily confused. I made new pg_operator

compatibility while making it pretty easy to remove the old names in
some future release cycle. This commit only touches the core datatypes,
contrib will be fixed separately.

This is per my earlier proposal. This commit includes all the basic

involving column references, function calls, and operators. More could
be done later but this seems like a good set to start with. I've also
moved the ReportSyntaxErrorPosition logic out of psql and into libpq,
which should make it available to more people --- even within psql this
is an improvement because warnings weren't handled by ReportSyntaxErrorPosition.
coding would ignore startup cost differences of less than 1% of the
estimated total cost; which was OK for normal planning but highly not OK
if a very small LIMIT was applied afterwards, so that startup cost becomes
the name of the game. Instead, compare startup and total costs fuzzily
but independently. This changes the plan selected for two queries in the
regression tests; adjust expected-output files for resulting changes in
row order. Per reports from Dawid Kuroczko and Sam Mason.
In particular, there was a mathematical tie between the two possible
nestloop-with-materialized-inner-scan plans for a join (ie, we computed
the same cost with either input on the inside), resulting in a roundoff
error driven choice, if the relations were both small enough to fit in
sort_mem. Add a small cost factor to ensure we prefer materializing the
smaller input. This changes several regression test plans, but with any
luck we will now have more stability across platforms.

We still need two geometry 'expected' files to account for the
difference between platforms that display minus zero as '-0' and those
