Tom Lane e990b9ce23 The original patch to avoid building a hash join's hashtable when the
outer relation is empty did not work, per test case from Patrick Welche.
It tried to use nodeHashjoin.c's high-level mechanisms for fetching an
outer-relation tuple, but that code expected the hash table to be filled
already.  As patched, the code failed in corner cases such as having no
outer-relation tuples for the first hash batch.  Revert and rewrite.

Tom Lane 54a8af058e In a machine where INT64_IS_BUSTED, we can only support 32-bit values
for int8 and related types.  However we might be talking to a client
that has working int64; so pq_getmsgint64 really needs to check the
incoming value and throw an overflow error if we can't represent it
accurately.

Tom Lane d7e4fd99e5 Fix bug introduced into indexable_outerrelids() by an ill-considered
"optimization".  When we find a potentially useful joinclause, we
have to add all its other required_relids to the result, not only the
other clause_relids.  They are different in the case of a joinclause
whose applicability has to be postponed due to outer join.  We have
to include the extra rels because otherwise, after best_inner_indexscan
masks the join rels with index_outer_relids, it will always fail to
find the joinclause as applicable.  Per report from Husam Tomeh.

Tom Lane a453951dd9 Take exclusive buffer lock in scan_heap() to eliminate some corner cases
in which invalid page data could be transiently written to disk by
concurrent bgwriter activity.  There doesn't seem any risk of loss of
actual user data, but an empty page could possibly be left corrupt if a
crash occurs before the correct data gets written out.  Pointed out by
Alvaro Herrera.
