Historically these database properties could be manipulated only by
manually updating pg_database, which is error-prone and only possible for
superusers. But there seems no good reason not to allow database owners to
set them for their databases, so invent CREATE/ALTER DATABASE options to do
that. Adjust a couple of places that were doing it the hard way to use the
commands instead.

At "DROP RULE/TRIGGER triggername ON ...", tab-complete tables that have
a rule/trigger with that name.
At "ALTER TABLE tablename ENABLE/DISABLE TRIGGER/RULE ...", tab-complete to
rules/triggers on that table. Previously, we would tab-complete to all
rules or triggers, not just those that are on that table.
Also, filter out internal RI triggers from the list. You can't DROP them,
and enabling/disabling them is such a rare (and dangerous) operation that
it seems better to hide them.

Pending patches for logical replication will use this to determine

Since an increasing number of views and foreign tables are now able
to be updated, complete with any table, view, or foreign table in
the relevant contexts. This avoids the need to use a complex
query that may be both confusing to end-users and nonperformant
to construct the list of possible completions.

Merged after review with security patch f3ab5d4.
A materialized view has a rule just like a view and a heap and
other physical properties like a table. The rule is only used to
populate the table, references in queries refer to the
materialized data.
This is a minimal implementation, but should still be useful in
many cases. Currently data is only populated "on demand" by the
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW and REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW statements.
It is expected that future releases will add incremental updates
with various timings, and that a more refined concept of defining
what is "fresh" data will be developed. At some point it may even
be possible to have queries use a materialized in place of
references to underlying tables, but that requires the other
above-mentioned features to be working first.
Much of the documentation work by Robert Haas.

This adds the variable COMP_KEYWORD_CASE, which controls in what case
keywords are completed. This is partially to let users configure the
change from commit 69f4f1c357, but it
also offers more behaviors than were available before.
ANALYZE now accepts foreign tables and allows the table's FDW to control
how the sample rows are collected. (But only manual ANALYZEs will touch
foreign tables, for the moment, since among other things it's not very
clear how to handle remote permissions checks in an auto-analyze.)
contrib/file_fdw is extended to support this.

Over-optimization (by me, looks like :-() broke the case of recognizing

psql backslash commands that deal with file or directory names require
quotes around those that have spaces, single quotes, or backslashes.
However, tab-completing such names does not provide said quotes, and is
thus almost useless with them.
This patch fixes the problem by having a wrapper function around
rl_filename_completion_function that dequotes on input and quotes on
output. This eases dealing with such names.

This adds support for the more or less SQL-conforming USAGE privilege

can create dependencies on types, which restricts the way in which
owners can alter types.

Make it return empty strings when there are no more words to the left of
the current position, instead of sometimes returning NULL and other times
returning copies of the leftmost word. Also, fetch the words in one scan,
rather than the previous wasteful approach of starting from scratch for
each word. Make the code a bit harder to break when someone decides we
need more words of context, too. (There was actually a memory leak here,
because whoever added prev6_wd neglected to free it.)
\ir is short for "include relative"; when used from a script, the

Use collencoding = -1 to represent such a collation in pg_collation.
We need this to make the "default" entry work sanely, and a later
patch will fix the C/POSIX entries to be represented this way instead
of duplicating them across all encodings. All lookup operations now
search first for an entry that's database-encoding-specific, and then
for the same name with collencoding = -1.
Also some incidental code cleanup in collationcmds.c and pg_collation.c.

The original design of pg_available_extensions did not consider the
possibility of version-specific control files. Split it into two views:
pg_available_extensions shows information that is generic about an
extension, while pg_available_extension_versions shows all available
versions together with information that could be version-dependent.
Also, add an SRF pg_extension_update_paths() to assist in checking that
a collection of update scripts provide sane update path sequences.

This patch adds the server infrastructure to support extensions.
There is still one significant loose end, namely how to make it play nice
with pg_upgrade, so I am not yet committing the changes that would make
all the contrib modules depend on this feature.
In passing, fix a disturbingly large amount of breakage in
AlterObjectNamespace() and callers.

Foreign tables are a core component of SQL/MED. This commit does
not provide a working SQL/MED infrastructure, because foreign tables
cannot yet be queried. Support for foreign table scans will need to
be added in a future patch. However, this patch creates the necessary
system catalog structure, syntax support, and support for ancillary
operations such as COMMENT and SECURITY LABEL.

to be initialized with proper values. Affected parameters are
fillfactor, analyze_threshold, and analyze_scale_factor.
Especially uninitialized fillfactor caused inefficient page usage
because we built a StdRdOptions struct in which fillfactor is zero
if any reloption is set for the toast table.
In addition, we disallow toast.autovacuum_analyze_threshold and
toast.autovacuum_analyze_scale_factor because we didn't actually
support them; they are always ignored.

Add missing completions for:
- ALTER SEQUENCE name OWNER TO
- ALTER TYPE name RENAME TO
- ALTER VIEW name ALTER COLUMN
- ALTER VIEW name OWNER TO
- ALTER VIEW name SET SCHEMA
Fix wrong completions for:
- ALTER FUNCTION/AGGREGATE name (arguments) ...
"(arguments)" has been ignored.
- ALTER ... SET SCHEMA
"SCHEMA" has been considered as a variable name.
Newly supported syntax are:
- ALTER {TABLE|INDEX|TABLESPACE} {SET|RESET} with options
- ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN {SET|RESET} with options
- ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN SET STORAGE
- CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY
- CREATE INDEX ON (without name)
- CREATE INDEX ... USING with pg_am.amname instead of hard-corded names
- CREATE TRIGGER with events
- DROP AGGREGATE function with arguments
In addition, add support for a "payload" string to be passed along with
each notify event.
This implementation should be significantly more efficient than the old one,
and is also more compatible with Hot Standby usage. There is not yet any
facility for HS slaves to receive notifications generated on the master,

Joachim Wieland, reviewed by Jeff Davis; also hacked on by me.
Attributes can now have options, just as relations and tablespaces do, and
the reloptions code is used to parse, validate, and store them. For
simplicity and because these options are not performance critical, we store
them in a separate cache rather than the main relcache.
