pass if "default_with_oids" is set to false. I took the approach of
explicitly adding WITH OIDS to the CREATE TABLEs where necessary, rather
than tweaking the default_with_oids GUC var.
(1) Keep a pin on the scan's current buffer and mark buffer. This
avoids the need to do a ReadBuffer() for each tuple produced by the
scan. Since ReadBuffer() is expensive, this is a significant win.
(2) Convert a ReleaseBuffer(); ReadBuffer() pair into
ReleaseAndReadBuffer(). Surely not a huge win, but it saves a lock
acquire/release...
(3) Remove a bunch of duplicated code in rtget.c; make rtnext() handle
both the "initial result" and "subsequent result" cases.
(4) Add support for index tuple killing
(5) Remove rtscancache(): it is dead code, for the same reason that
gistscancache() is dead code (an index scan ought not be invoked with
NoMovementScanDirection).
The end result is about a 10% improvement in rtree index scan perf,
according to contrib/rtree_gist/bench.
