Commit 964d01ae9 marked a lot of fields as read_write_ignore
to stay consistent with what was dumped by the manually-maintained
outfuncs.c code. However, it seems that a pretty fair number
of those omissions were either flat-out oversights, or a shortcut
taken because hand-written code seemed like it'd be too much trouble.
Let's upgrade things where it seems to make sense to dump.
To do this, we need to add support to gen_node_support.pl and
outfuncs.c for variable-length arrays of Node pointers. That's
pretty straightforward given the model of the existing code
for arrays of scalars, but I found I needed to tighten the
type-recognizing regexes in gen_node_support.pl. (As they
stood, they mistook "foo **" for "foo *". Make sure they're
all fully anchored to prevent additional problems.)
The main thing left un-done here is that a lot of partitioning-related
structs are still not dumped, because they are bare structs not Nodes.
I'm not sure about the wisdom of that choice ... but changing it would
be fairly invasive, so it probably requires more justification than
just making planner node dumps more complete.

Without processing shared_preload_libraries, it's impossible to
recover if custom WAL resource managers are needed. It may also pose a
problem running VACUUM on a table with a custom AM, if the module
implementing the AM is expecting to be loaded by
shared_preload_libraries.
The reason this wasn't done before was just the general principle to
do fewer things in single-user mode. But it's easy enough to just set
shared_preload_libraries to empty, for the same effect.

When the ability to print variable-length-array fields was first
added to outfuncs.c, there was no corresponding read capability,
as it was used only for debug dumps of planner-internal Nodes.
Not a lot of thought seems to have been put into the output format:
it's just the space-separated array elements and nothing else.
Later such fields appeared in Plan nodes, and still later we grew
read support so that Plans could be transferred to parallel workers,
but the original text format wasn't rethought. It seems inadequate
to me because (a) no cross-check is possible that we got the right
number of array entries, (b) we can't tell the difference between
a NULL pointer and a zero-length array, and (c) except for
WRITE_INDEX_ARRAY, we'd crash if a non-zero length is specified
when the pointer is NULL, a situation that can arise in some fields
that we currently conveniently avoid printing.
Since we're currently in a campaign to make the Node infrastructure
generally more it-just-works-without-thinking-about-it, now seems
like a good time to improve this.
Let's adopt a format similar to that used for Lists, that is "<>"
for a NULL pointer or "(item item item)" otherwise. Also retool
the code to not have so many copies of the identical logic.
I bumped catversion out of an abundance of caution, although I think
that we don't use any such array fields in Nodes that can get into
the catalogs.

We allow users to set the values of not-yet-loaded extension GUCs,
remembering those values in "placeholder" GUC entries. When/if
the extension is loaded later in the session, we need to verify that
the user had permissions to set the GUC. That was done correctly
before commit a0ffa885e, but as of that commit, we'd check the
permissions of the active role when the LOAD happens, not the role
that had set the value. (This'd be a security bug if it had made it
into a released version.)
In principle this is simple enough to fix: we just need to remember
the exact role OID that set each GUC value, and use that not
GetUserID() when verifying permissions. Maintaining that data in
the guc.c data structures is slightly tedious, but fortunately it's
all basically just copy-n-paste of the logic for tracking the
GucSource of each setting, as we were already doing.
Another oversight is that validate_option_array_item() hadn't
been taught to check for granted GUC privileges. This appears
to manifest only in that ALTER ROLE/DATABASE RESET ALL will
fail to reset settings that the user should be allowed to reset.

setrefs.c contains logic to discard no-op SubqueryScan nodes, that is,
ones that have no qual to check and copy the input targetlist unchanged.
(Formally it's not very nice to be applying such optimizations so late
in the planner, but there are practical reasons for it; mostly that we
can't unify relids between the subquery and the parent query until we
flatten the rangetable during setrefs.c.) This behavior falsifies our
previous cost estimates, since we would've charged cpu_tuple_cost per
row just to pass data through the node. Most of the time that's little
enough to not matter, but there are cases where this effect visibly
changes the plan compared to what you would've gotten with no
sub-select.
To improve the situation, make the callers of cost_subqueryscan tell
it whether they think the targetlist is trivial. cost_subqueryscan
already has the qual list, so it can check the other half of the
condition easily. It could make its own determination of tlist
triviality too, but doing so would be repetitive (for callers that
may call it several times) or unnecessarily expensive (for callers
that can determine this more cheaply than a general test would do).
This isn't a 100% solution, because createplan.c also does things
that can falsify any earlier estimate of whether the tlist is
trivial. However, it fixes nearly all cases in practice, if results
for the regression tests are anything to go by.
setrefs.c also contains logic to discard no-op Append and MergeAppend
nodes. We did have knowledge of that behavior at costing time, but
somebody failed to update it when a check on parallel-awareness was
added to the setrefs.c logic. Fix that while we're here.
These changes result in two minor changes in query plans shown in
our regression tests. Neither is relevant to the purposes of its
test case AFAICT.

Per discussion, this commit includes a couple of changes to these two
flavors of REINDEX:
* The grammar is changed to make the name of the object optional, hence
one can rebuild all the indexes of the wanted area by specifying only
"REINDEX DATABASE;" or "REINDEX SYSTEM;". Previously, the object name
was mandatory and had to match the name of the database on which the
command is issued.
* REINDEX DATABASE is changed to ignore catalogs, making this task only
possible with REINDEX SYSTEM. This is a historical change, but there
was no way to work only on the indexes of a database without touching
the catalogs. We have discussed more approaches here, like the addition
of an option to skip the catalogs without changing the original
behavior, but concluded that what we have here is for the best.
This builds on top of the TAP tests introduced in 5fb5b6c, showing the
change in behavior for REINDEX SYSTEM. reindexdb is updated so as we do
not issue an extra REINDEX SYSTEM when working on a database in the
non-concurrent case, something that was confusing when --concurrently
got introduced, so this simplifies the code.

Adding such commands in the main regression test suite is not a good
approach performance-wise as it impacts all the objects in the
regression database, so this additional coverage is added in the TAP
tests of reindexdb where we already run a few REINDEX commands with
SYSTEM and DATABASE so there is no runtime difference for the test.
This additional coverage checks which relations are rewritten with
relfilenode changes, as of:
- a toast index in user table.
- a toast index in catalog table.
- a catalog index.
- a user index.
This test suite is something I have implemented for a separate patch
that reworks a bit the way we handle these two REINDEX behaviors, but it
has enough value in itself to be in a separate commit. This also makes
easier to follow what actually changes once the REINDEX logic is
reworked (currently, DABATASE rewrites both catalog and user tables, and
SYSTEM works only on catalogs).

I do not [yet] understand how, but my prior commit (089480c077) accidentally
removed the exec bit from configure. I'll try to figure that out later, for
now re-add to unbreak the buildfarm.
Until now postgres built extension libraries with global visibility, i.e.
exporting all symbols. On the one platform where that behavior is not
natively available, namely windows, we emulate it by analyzing the input files
to the shared library and exporting all the symbols therein.
Not exporting all symbols is actually desirable, as it can improve loading
speed, reduces the likelihood of symbol conflicts and can improve intra
extension library function call performance. It also makes the non-windows
builds more similar to windows builds.
Additionally, with meson implementing the export-all-symbols behavior for
windows, turns out to be more verbose than desirable.
This patch adds support for hiding symbols by default and, to counteract that,
explicit symbol visibility annotation for compilers that support
__attribute__((visibility("default"))) and -fvisibility=hidden. That is
expected to be most, if not all, compilers except msvc (for which we already
support explicit symbol export annotations).
Now that extension library symbols are explicitly exported, we don't need to
export all symbols on windows anymore, hence remove that behavior from
src/tools/msvc. The supporting code can't be removed, as we still need to
export all symbols from the main postgres binary.

Don't consider a constant of regconfig or other reg* types to be
shippable unless it refers to a built-in object, or an object in
an extension that's been marked shippable. Without this
restriction, we're too likely to send a constant that will fail
to parse on the remote server.
For the regconfig type only, consider OIDs up to 16383 to be
"built in", rather than the normal cutoff of 9999. Otherwise
the initdb-created text search configurations will be considered
unshippable, which is unlikely to make anyone happy.
It's possible that this new restriction will de-optimize queries
that were working satisfactorily before. Users can restore any
lost performance by making sure that objects that can be expected
to exist on the remote side are in shippable extensions. However,
that's not a change that people are likely to be happy about having
