David Rowley c2d35bb88e Doc: mention that extended stats aren't used for joins
Statistics defined by the CREATE STATISTICS command are only used to
assist with the selectivity estimations of base relations, never for
joins.  Here we mention this fact in the notes section of the CREATE
STATISTICS command.

Jeff Davis a14e75eb0b CREATE DATABASE: make LOCALE apply to all collation providers.
For CREATE DATABASE, make LOCALE parameter apply regardless of the
provider used. Also affects initdb and createdb --locale arguments.

Previously, LOCALE (and --locale) only affected the database default
collation when using the libc provider.

Fujii Masao 378d73ef20 doc: Fix example command for ALTER FOREIGN TABLE ... OPTIONS.
In the documentation, previously the example command for
ALTER FOREIGN TABLE ... OPTIONS incorrectly included both
the option name and value with the DROP operation.
The correct syntax for the DROP operation requires only
the name of the option to be specified. This commit fixes
the example by removing the option value from the DROP operation.

Back-patch to all supported versions.

Peter Eisentraut b0f6c43716 Remove read-only server settings lc_collate and lc_ctype
The GUC settings lc_collate and lc_ctype are from a time when those
locale settings were cluster-global.  When those locale settings were
made per-database (PG 8.4), the settings were kept as read-only.  As
of PG 15, you can use ICU as the per-database locale provider, so
examining these settings is already less meaningful and possibly
confusing, since you need to look into pg_database to find out what is
really happening, and they would likely become fully obsolete in the
future anyway.

Tom Lane 1f9f6aa491 Spell the values of libpq's gssdelegation parameter as "0" and "1".
That's how other boolean options are handled, so do likewise.
The previous coding with "enable" and "disable" was seemingly
modeled on gssencmode, but that's a three-way flag.

While at it, add PGGSSDELEGATION to the set of environment
variables cleared by pg_regress and Utils.pm.

Tom Lane 0245f8db36 Pre-beta mechanical code beautification.
Run pgindent, pgperltidy, and reformat-dat-files.

This set of diffs is a bit larger than typical.  We've updated to
pg_bsd_indent 2.1.2, which properly indents variable declarations that
have multi-line initialization expressions (the continuation lines are
now indented one tab stop).  We've also updated to perltidy version
20230309 and changed some of its settings, which reduces its desire to
add whitespace to lines to make assignments etc. line up.  Going
forward, that should make for fewer random-seeming changes to existing
code.
