Reformat various places in which pgindent will make a mess, and
fix a few small violations of coding style that I happened to notice
while perusing the diffs from a pgindent dry run.
There is one actual bug fix here: the need-to-enlarge-the-buffer code
path in icu_convert_case was obviously broken. Perhaps it's unreachable
in our usage? Or maybe this is just sadly undertested.
Commit 827d6f977 contained the same misunderstanding of hash_create's API
as commit 090010f2e. As in 5d00b764c, remove the unnecessary layer of
memory context. (This bug is less significant than the other one, since
the extra context would be under a relatively short-lived context, but
it's still a bug.)
Per a report from Tom Lane, newer versions of gcc apparently think
that partexprs_item_saved can be used uninitialized. Try to convince
them otherwise.
Remove default cases from assorted switches over ObjectClass and some
related enum types, so that we'll get compiler warnings when someone
adds a new enum value without accounting for it in all these places.
In passing, re-order some switch cases as needed to match the declaration
of enum ObjectClass. OK, that's just neatnik-ism, but I dislike code
that looks like it was assembled with the help of a dartboard.

Consistently refer to such an entry as a "statistics object", not just
"statistics" or "extended statistics". Previously we had a mismash of
terms, accompanied by utter confusion as to whether the term was
singular or plural. That's not only grating (at least to the ear of
a native English speaker) but could be outright misleading, eg in error
messages that seemed to be referring to multiple objects where only one
could be meant.
This commit fixes the code and a lot of comments (though I may have
missed a few). I also renamed two new SQL functions,
pg_get_statisticsextdef -> pg_get_statisticsobjdef
pg_statistic_ext_is_visible -> pg_statistics_obj_is_visible
to conform better with this terminology.
I have not touched the SGML docs other than fixing those function
names; the docs certainly need work but it seems like a separable task.

Tab-completing DROP STATISTICS would only work if you started writing
the schema name containing the statistics object, because the visibility
clause was missing. To add it, we need to add SQL-callable support for
testing visibility of a statistics object, like all other object types
already have.

This was missed in 7b504eb282.
Remove the "default:" clause in the switch, to avoid this problem in the

A stats object ought to have a dependency on each individual column
it reads, not the entire table. Doing this honestly lets us get rid
of the hard-wired logic in RemoveStatisticsExt, which seems to have
been misguidedly modeled on RemoveStatistics; and it will be far easier
to extend to multiple tables later.
Also, add overlooked dependency on owner, and make the dependency on
schema be NORMAL like every other such dependency.
There remains some unfinished work here, which is to allow statistics
objects to be extension members. That takes more effort than just
adding the dependency call, though, so I left it out for now.
initdb forced because this changes the set of pg_depend records that
should exist for a statistics object.

Per discussion, "location" is a rather vague term that could refer to
multiple concepts. "LSN" is an unambiguous term for WAL locations and
should be preferred. Some function names, view column names, and function
output argument names used "lsn" already, but others used "location",
as well as yet other terms such as "wal_position". Since we've already
renamed a lot of things in this area from "xlog" to "wal" for v10,
we may as well incur a bit more compatibility pain and make these names
all consistent.

Formerly, the bootstrap backend looked up the OIDs corresponding to
names in regproc catalog entries using brute-force searches of pg_proc.
It was somewhat remarkable that that worked at all, since it was used
while populating other pretty-fundamental catalogs like pg_operator.
And it was also quite slow, and getting slower as pg_proc gets bigger.
This patch moves the lookup work into genbki.pl, so that the values in
postgres.bki for regproc columns are always numeric OIDs, an option
that regprocin() already supported. Perl isn't the world's speediest
language, so this about doubles the time needed to run genbki.pl (from
0.3 to 0.6 sec on my machine). But we only do that at most once per
build. The time needed to run initdb drops significantly --- on my
machine, initdb --no-sync goes from 1.8 to 1.3 seconds. So this is
a small net win even for just one initdb per build, and it becomes
quite a nice win for test sequences requiring many initdb runs.
Strip out the now-dead code for brute-force catalog searching in
regprocin. We'd also cargo-culted similar logic into regoperin
and some (not all) of the other reg*in functions. That is all
dead code too since we currently have no need to load such values
during bootstrap. I removed it all, reasoning that if we ever
need such functionality it'd be much better to do it in a similar
way to this patch.
There might be some simplifications possible in the backend now that
regprocin doesn't require doing catalog reads so early in bootstrap.
I've not looked into that, though.

This extends the castNode() notation introduced by commit 5bcab1114 to
provide, in one step, extraction of a list cell's pointer and coercion to
a concrete node type. For example, "lfirst_node(Foo, lc)" is the same
as "castNode(Foo, lfirst(lc))". Almost half of the uses of castNode
that have appeared so far include a list extraction call, so this is
pretty widely useful, and it saves a few more keystrokes compared to the
old way.
As with the previous patch, back-patch the addition of these macros to
pg_list.h, so that the notation will be available when back-patching.

A QueryEnvironment concept is added, which allows new types of
objects to be passed into queries from parsing on through
execution. At this point, the only thing implemented is a
collection of EphemeralNamedRelation objects -- relations which
can be referenced by name in queries, but do not exist in the
catalogs. The only type of ENR implemented is NamedTuplestore, but
provision is made to add more types fairly easily.
An ENR can carry its own TupleDesc or reference a relation in the
catalogs by relid.
Although these features can be used without SPI, convenience
functions are added to SPI so that ENRs can easily be used by code
run through SPI.
The initial use of all this is going to be transition tables in
AFTER triggers, but that will be added to each PL as a separate
commit.
An incidental effect of this patch is to produce a more informative
error message if an attempt is made to modify the contents of a CTE
from a referencing DML statement. No tests previously covered that
possibility, so one is added.

Also, don't allow setting reloptions on them, since that would have no

Change one more place where ExecInitCheck/ExecPrepareCheck's insistence
on getting implicit-AND-format quals wasn't really helpful, because the
caller had to do make_ands_implicit() for no reason that it cared about.
Using ExecPrepareExpr directly simplifies the code and saves cycles.
The only remaining use of these functions is to process
resultRelInfo->ri_PartitionCheck quals. However, implicit-AND format
does seem to be what we want for that, so leave it alone.
This replaces the old, recursive tree-walk based evaluation, with
non-recursive, opcode dispatch based, expression evaluation.
Projection is now implemented as part of expression evaluation.
This both leads to significant performance improvements, and makes
future just-in-time compilation of expressions easier.
The speed gains primarily come from:
- non-recursive implementation reduces stack usage / overhead
- simple sub-expressions are implemented with a single jump, without
function calls
- sharing some state between different sub-expressions
- reduced amount of indirect/hard to predict memory accesses by laying
out operation metadata sequentially; including the avoidance of
nearly all of the previously used linked lists
- more code has been moved to expression initialization, avoiding
constant re-checks at evaluation time
Future just-in-time compilation (JIT) has become easier, as
demonstrated by released patches intended to be merged in a later
release, for primarily two reasons: Firstly, due to a stricter split
between expression initialization and evaluation, less code has to be
handled by the JIT. Secondly, due to the non-recursive nature of the
generated "instructions", less performance-critical code-paths can
easily be shared between interpreted and compiled evaluation.
The new framework allows for significant future optimizations. E.g.:
- basic infrastructure for to later reduce the per executor-startup
overhead of expression evaluation, by caching state in prepared
statements. That'd be helpful in OLTPish scenarios where
initialization overhead is measurable.
- optimizing the generated "code". A number of proposals for potential
work has already been made.
- optimizing the interpreter. Similarly a number of proposals have
been made here too.
The move of logic into the expression initialization step leads to some
backward-incompatible changes:
- Function permission checks are now done during expression
initialization, whereas previously they were done during
execution. In edge cases this can lead to errors being raised that
previously wouldn't have been, e.g. a NULL array being coerced to a
different array type previously didn't perform checks.
- The set of domain constraints to be checked, is now evaluated once
during expression initialization, previously it was re-built
every time a domain check was evaluated. For normal queries this
doesn't change much, but e.g. for plpgsql functions, which caches
ExprStates, the old set could stick around longer. The behavior
around might still change.

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:

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.

Adds write_lag, flush_lag and replay_lag cols to pg_stat_replication.
Implements a lag tracker module that reports the lag times based upon
measurements of the time taken for recent WAL to be written, flushed and
replayed and for the sender to hear about it. These times
represent the commit lag that was (or would have been) introduced by each
synchronous commit level, if the remote server was configured as a
synchronous standby. For an asynchronous standby, the replay_lag column
approximates the delay before recent transactions became visible to queries.
If the standby server has entirely caught up with the sending server and
there is no more WAL activity, the most recently measured lag times will
continue to be displayed for a short time and then show NULL.
Physical replication lag tracking is automatic. Logical replication tracking
is possible but is the responsibility of the logical decoding plugin.
Tracking is a private module operating within each walsender individually,
