This commit adds a new COPY option LOG_VERBOSITY, which controls the
amount of messages emitted during processing. Valid values are
'default' and 'verbose'.
This is currently used in COPY FROM when ON_ERROR option is set to
ignore. If 'verbose' is specified, a NOTICE message is emitted for
each discarded row, providing additional information such as line
number, column name, and the malformed value. This helps users to
identify problematic rows that failed to load.

While digging into the code of this feature, I got confused by the fact
that a line is skipped when a value cannot be converted to its expected
attribute even if the line has fewer attributes than the target
relation. The tests had a check for the case of an empty line, this
commit a couple more patterns where a line is incomplete, but skipped
because of a conversion error.

Currently, when source data contains unexpected data regarding data type or
range, the entire COPY fails. However, in some cases, such data can be ignored
and just copying normal data is preferable.
This commit adds a new option SAVE_ERROR_TO, which specifies where to save the
error information. When this option is specified, COPY skips soft errors and
continues copying.
Currently, SAVE_ERROR_TO only supports "none". This indicates error information
is not saved and COPY just skips the unexpected data and continues running.
Later works are expected to add more choices, such as 'log' and 'table'.

These options already exist, but you need to specify a column list for
them, which can be cumbersome. We already have the possibility of all
columns for FORCE QUOTE, so this is simply extending that facility to
FORCE_NULL and FORCE_NOT_NULL.

This allows for a string which if an input field matches causes the
column's default value to be inserted. The advantage of this is that
the default can be inserted in some rows and not others, for which

When reporting "conflicting or redundant options" errors, try to
ensure that errposition() is used, to help the user identify the
offending option.
Formerly, errposition() was invoked in less than 60% of cases. This
patch raises that to over 90%, but there remain a few places where the
ParseState is not readily available. Using errdetail() might improve
the error in such cases, but that is left as a task for the future.
Additionally, since this error is thrown from over 100 places in the
codebase, introduce a dedicated function to throw it, reducing code
duplication.

The handling of those options was inconsistent, as the processing used
directly the value assigned to the option to check if it was redundant,
leading to patterns like this one to succeed (note that false is
specified first):
COPY hoge to '/path/to/file/' (header off, header on);
And the opposite would fail correctly (note that true is first here):
COPY hoge to '/path/to/file/' (header on, header off);
While on it, add some tests to check for all redundant patterns with the
options of COPY. I have gone through the code and did not notice
similar mistakes for other commands.
"header" got it wrong since b63990c, and "freeze" was wrong from the
start as of 8de72b6. No backpatch is done per the lack of complaints.

COPY can skip writing WAL when loading data on a table which has been
created in the same transaction as the one loading the data, however
this cannot work on views or foreign table as this would result in
trying to flush relation files which do not exist. So disable the
optimization so as commands are able to work the same way with any
configuration of wal_level.
Tests are added to cover the different cases, which need to have
wal_level set to minimal to allow the problem to show up, and that is
not the default configuration.

Backpatch-through: 10, where support for COPY on views has been added,
while v11 has added support for COPY on foreign tables.
Previously tables declared WITH OIDS, including a significant fraction
of the catalog tables, stored the oid column not as a normal column,
but as part of the tuple header.
This special column was not shown by default, which was somewhat odd,
as it's often (consider e.g. pg_class.oid) one of the more important
parts of a row. Neither pg_dump nor COPY included the contents of the
oid column by default.
The fact that the oid column was not an ordinary column necessitated a
significant amount of special case code to support oid columns. That
already was painful for the existing, but upcoming work aiming to make
table storage pluggable, would have required expanding and duplicating
that "specialness" significantly.
WITH OIDS has been deprecated since 2005 (commit ff02d0a05280e0).
Remove it.
Removing includes:
- CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE syntax for declaring the table to be
WITH OIDS has been removed (WITH (oids[ = true]) will error out)
- pg_dump does not support dumping tables declared WITH OIDS and will
issue a warning when dumping one (and ignore the oid column).
- restoring an pg_dump archive with pg_restore will warn when
restoring a table with oid contents (and ignore the oid column)
- COPY will refuse to load binary dump that includes oids.
- pg_upgrade will error out when encountering tables declared WITH
OIDS, they have to be altered to remove the oid column first.
- Functionality to access the oid of the last inserted row (like
plpgsql's RESULT_OID, spi's SPI_lastoid, ...) has been removed.
The syntax for declaring a table WITHOUT OIDS (or WITH (oids = false)
for CREATE TABLE) is still supported. While that requires a bit of
support code, it seems unnecessary to break applications / dumps that
do not use oids, and are explicit about not using them.
The biggest user of WITH OID columns was postgres' catalog. This
commit changes all 'magic' oid columns to be columns that are normally
declared and stored. To reduce unnecessary query breakage all the
newly added columns are still named 'oid', even if a table's column
naming scheme would indicate 'reloid' or such. This obviously
requires adapting a lot code, mostly replacing oid access via
HeapTupleGetOid() with access to the underlying Form_pg_*->oid column.
The bootstrap process now assigns oids for all oid columns in
genbki.pl that do not have an explicit value (starting at the largest
oid previously used), only oids assigned later by oids will be above
FirstBootstrapObjectId. As the oid column now is a normal column the
special bootstrap syntax for oids has been removed.
Oids are not automatically assigned during insertion anymore, all
backend code explicitly assigns oids with GetNewOidWithIndex(). For
the rare case that insertions into the catalog via SQL are called for
the new pg_nextoid() function can be used (which only works on catalog
tables).
The fact that oid columns on system tables are now normal columns
means that they will be included in the set of columns expanded
by * (i.e. SELECT * FROM pg_class will now include the table's oid,
previously it did not). It'd not technically be hard to hide oid
column by default, but that'd mean confusing behavior would either
have to be carried forward forever, or it'd cause breakage down the
line.
While it's not unlikely that further adjustments are needed, the
scope/invasiveness of the patch makes it worthwhile to get merge this
now. It's painful to maintain externally, too complicated to commit
after the code code freeze, and a dependency of a number of other
patches.
Catversion bump, for obvious reasons.

AclObjectKind was basically just another enumeration for object types,
and we already have a preferred one for that. It's only used in
aclcheck_error. By using ObjectType instead, we can also give some more

Attempting to COPY a subset of columns from a table with RLS enabled
would fail due to an invalid query being constructed (using a single
ColumnRef with the list of fields to exact in 'fields', but that's for
the different levels of an indirection for a single column, not for
specifying multiple columns).
Correct by building a ColumnRef and then RestTarget for each column
being requested and then adding those to the targetList for the select
query. Include regression tests to hopefully catch if this is broken
again in the future.

Remove the code in plpgsql that suppressed the innermost line of CONTEXT
for messages emitted by RAISE commands. That was never more than a quick
backwards-compatibility hack, and it's pretty silly in cases where the
RAISE is nested in several levels of function. What's more, it violated
our design theory that verbosity of error reports should be controlled
on the client side not the server side.
To alleviate the resulting noise increase, introduce a feature in libpq
and psql whereby the CONTEXT field of messages can be suppressed, either
always or only for non-error messages. Printing CONTEXT for errors only
is now their default behavior.
The actual code changes here are pretty small, but the effects on the
regression test outputs are widespread. I had to edit some of the
alternative expected outputs by hand; hopefully the buildfarm will soon
find anything I fat-fingered.
In passing, fix up (again) the output line counts in psql's various
help displays. Add some commentary about how to verify them.

In commit bf7ca15875 I introduced an
assumption that an RTE referenced by a whole-row Var must have a valid eref
field. This is false for RTEs constructed by DoCopy, and there are other
places taking similar shortcuts. Perhaps we should make all those places
go through addRangeTableEntryForRelation or its siblings instead of having
ad-hoc logic, but the most reliable fix seems to be to make the new code in
ExecEvalWholeRowVar cope if there's no eref. We can reasonably assume that
there's no need to insert column aliases if no aliases were provided.
Add a regression test case covering this, and also verifying that a sane
column name is in fact available in this situation.
Although the known case only crashes in 9.4 and HEAD, it seems prudent to
back-patch the code change to 9.2, since all the ingredients for a similar
failure exist in the variant patch applied to 9.3 and 9.2.
Per report from Jean-Pierre Pelletier.
This forces an input field containing the quoted null string to be
returned as a NULL. Without this option, only unquoted null strings
behave this way. This helps where some CSV producers insist on quoting
every field, whether or not it is needed. The option takes a list of
fields, and only applies to those columns. There is an equivalent
column-level option added to file_fdw.

Allow support only for freezing tuples by explicit
command. Previous coding mistakenly extended
slightly beyond what was agreed as correct on -hackers.
So essentially a partial revoke of earlier work,
leaving just the COPY FREEZE command.
When a relfilenode is created in this subtransaction or
a committed child transaction and it cannot otherwise
be seen by our own process, mark tuples committed ahead
of transaction commit for all COPY commands in same
transaction. If FREEZE specified on COPY
and pre-conditions met then rows will also be frozen.
Both options designed to avoid revisiting rows after commit,
increasing performance of subsequent commands after
data load and upgrade. pg_restore changes later.

The COPY documentation says "COPY FROM matches the input against the null
string before removing backslashes". It is therefore reasonable to presume
that null markers like E'\\0' will work ... and they did, until someone put
the tests in the wrong order during microoptimization-driven rewrites.
Since then, we've been failing if the null marker is something that would
de-escape to an invalidly-encoded string. Since null markers generally
need to be something that can't appear in the data, this represents a
nontrivial loss of functionality; surprising nobody noticed it earlier.
Per report from Jeff Davis. Backpatch to 8.4 where this got broken.
File encodings can be specified separately from client encoding.
If not specified, client encoding is used for backward compatibility.
Cases when the encoding doesn't match client encoding are slower
than matched cases because we don't have conversion procs for other
encodings. Performance improvement would be be a future work.

This is intentionally similar to the recently revised syntax for EXPLAIN

This prevents autovacuum from reclaiming free space in them and causing
