Until now we emitted the cflags to build the CRC objects into architecture
specific variables. That doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me - we're never
going to target x86 and arm at the same time, so they don't need to be
separate variables.
It might be better to instead continue to have CFLAGS_SSE42 /
CFLAGS_ARMV8_CRC32C be computed by PGAC_ARMV8_CRC32C_INTRINSICS /
PGAC_SSE42_CRC32_INTRINSICS and then set CFLAGS_CRC based on those. But it
seems unlikely that we'd need other sets of CRC specific flags for those two
architectures at the same time.
This simplifies the upcoming meson PGXS compatibility.

Compression specifications are currently used by pg_basebackup and
pg_receivewal, and are able to let the user control in an extended way
the method and level of compression used. As an effect of this commit,
pg_dump's -Z/--compress is now able to use more than just an integer, as
of the grammar "method[:detail]".
The method can be either "none" or "gzip", and can optionally take a
detail string. If the detail string is only an integer, it defines the
compression level. A comma-separated list of keywords can also be used
method allows for more options, the only keyword supported now is
"level".
The change is backward-compatible, hence specifying only an integer
leads to no compression for a level of 0 and gzip compression when the
level is greater than 0.
Most of the code changes are straight-forward, as pg_dump was relying on
an integer tracking the compression level to check for gzip or no
compression. These are changed to use a compression specification and
the algorithm stored in it.
As of this change, note that the dump format is not bumped because there
is no need yet to track the compression algorithm in the TOC entries.
Hence, we still rely on the compression level to make the difference
when reading them. This will be mandatory once a new compression method
is added, though.
In order to keep the code simpler when parsing the compression
specification, the code is changed so as pg_dump now fails hard when
using gzip on -Z/--compress without its support compiled, rather than
enforcing no compression without the user knowing about it except
through a warning. Like before this commit, archive and custom formats
are compressed by default when the code is compiled with gzip, and left
uncompressed without gzip.

The planner will now add a given PartitioPruneInfo to
PlannedStmt.partPruneInfos instead of directly to the
Append/MergeAppend plan node. What gets set instead in the
latter is an index field which points to the list element
of PlannedStmt.partPruneInfos containing the PartitioPruneInfo
belonging to the plan node.
A later commit will make AcquireExecutorLocks() do the initial
partition pruning to determine a minimal set of partitions to be
locked when validating a plan tree and it will need to consult the
PartitioPruneInfos referenced therein to do so. It would be better
for the PartitioPruneInfos to be accessible directly than requiring
a walk of the plan tree to find them, which is easier when it can be
done by simply iterating over PlannedStmt.partPruneInfos.

Matviews have been discarded from needing predicate locks since 3bf3ab8
and their introduction. At this point, there was no concurrent flavor
of REFRESH yet, hence there was no meaning in having materialized views
look at read/write conflicts with concurrent transactions using
themselves the serializable isolation level because they could only be
refreshed with an access exclusive lock. CONCURRENTLY, on the contrary,
allows reads and writes during a refresh as it holds a share update
exclusive lock.
Some isolation tests are added to show the effect of the change, with a
combination of one table and a matview based on it, using a mix of
REFRESH CONCURRENTLY and read/write queries.
This could arguably be considered as a bug, but as it is a subtle
behavior change potentially impacting applications no backpatch is

A future commit will move the checkAsUser field from RangeTblEntry

mentioned in the query but not for the inheritance child relations
added to the query by the planner. So, checkAsUser value for a

This commit moves the code in charge of deparsing the method and detail
strings fed later to parse_compress_specification() to a common routine,
where the backward-compatible case of only an integer being found (N
= 0 => "none", N > 1 => gzip at level N) is handled.
Note that this has a side-effect for pg_basebackup, as we now attempt to
detect "server-" and "client-" before checking for the integer-only
pre-14 grammar, where values like server-N and client-N (without the
follow-up detail string) are now valid rather than failing because of an
unsupported method name. Past grammars are still handled the same way,
but these flavors are now authorized, and would now switch to consider N
= 0 as no compression and N > 1 as gzip with the compression level used
as N, with the caller still controlling if the compression method should
be done server-side, client-side or is unspecified. The documentation
of pg_basebackup is updated to reflect that.
This benefits other code paths that would like to rely on the same logic
as pg_basebackup and pg_receivewal with option values used for
compression specifications, one area discussed lately being pg_dump.

Previously, we'd compress only when the active range of array entries
reached Max(4 * PROCARRAY_MAXPROCS, 2 * pArray->numKnownAssignedXids).
If max_connections is large, the first term could result in not
compressing for a long time, resulting in much wastage of cycles in
hot-standby backends scanning the array to take snapshots. Get rid
of that term, and just bound it to 2 * pArray->numKnownAssignedXids.
That however creates the opposite risk, that we might spend too much
effort compressing. Hence, consider compressing only once every 128
commit records. (This frequency was chosen by benchmarking. While
we only tried one benchmark scenario, the results seem stable over
a fairly wide range of frequencies.)
Also, force compression when processing RecoveryInfo WAL records
(which should be infrequent); the old code could perform compression
then, but would do so only after the same array-range check as for
the transaction-commit path.
Also, opportunistically run compression if the startup process is about
to wait for WAL, though not oftener than once a second. This should
prevent cases where we waste lots of time by leaving the array
not-compressed for long intervals due to low WAL traffic.
Lastly, add a simple check to keep us from uselessly compressing
when the array storage is already compact.

This is an oversight in commit 7c337b6b5: I apparently didn't think
about the possibility of a SQL function being executed multiple
times within a query. In that case, functions.c's primitive caching
mechanism allows the same utility parse tree to be presented for
execution more than once. We have to tell ProcessUtility to make
a working copy of the parse tree, or bad things happen.
Normally I'd add a regression test, but I think the reported crasher
is dependent on some rather random implementation choices that are
nowhere near functions.c, so its usefulness as a long-lived test
feels questionable. In any case, this fix is clearly correct given
the design choices of 7c337b6b5.

The list of TokenizedAuthLines generated at parsing for the HBA and

when opening the first authentication file of a HBA/ident set (hba_file

it through a new routine called free_auth_file(). One call of
open_auth_file() should have one matching call of free_auth_file(), the
creation and deletion of the tokenization context is controlled by the
recursion depth of the tokenization.
Rather than having tokenize_auth_file() return a memory context that
includes all the records, the tokenization logic now creates and deletes
one memory context each time this function is called. This will
simplify recursive calls to this routine for the upcoming inclusion
record logic.

We've made multiple attempts at preventing get_actual_variable_range
from taking an unreasonable amount of time (3ca930fc3, fccebe421).
But there's still an issue for the very first planning attempt after
deletion of a large number of extremal-valued tuples. While that
planning attempt will set "killed" bits on the tuples it visits and
thereby reduce effort for next time, there's still a lot of work it
has to do to visit the heap and then set those bits. It's (usually?)
not worth it to do that much work at plan time to have a slightly
better estimate, especially in a context like this where the table
contents are known to be mutating rapidly.
Therefore, let's bound the amount of work to be done by giving up
after we've visited 100 heap pages. Giving up just means we'll
fall back on the extremal value recorded in pg_statistic, so it
shouldn't mean that planner estimates suddenly become worthless.
Note that this means we'll still gradually whittle down the problem
by setting a few more index "killed" bits in each planning attempt;
so eventually we'll reach a good state (barring further deletions),
even in the absence of VACUUM.

Once a logical slot has acquired a catalog_xmin, it doesn't let go of
it, even when invalidated by exceeding the max_slot_wal_keep_size, which
means that dead catalog tuples are not removed by vacuum anymore since
the point is invalidated, until the slot is dropped. This could be
catastrophic if catalog churn is high.
Change the computation of Xmin to ignore invalidated slots,
to prevent dead rows from accumulating.

The lwlock wait queue scalability issue fixed in a4adc31f69 was quite hard to
find because of the exponential backoff and because we adjust spins_per_delay
over time within a backend.
To make it easier to find similar issues in the future, add a wait event for
the pg_usleep() in perform_spin_delay(). Showing a wait event while spinning
without sleeping would increase the overhead of spinlocks, which we do not
want.
We may at some later point want to have more granular wait events, but that'd
be a substantial amount of work. This provides at least some insights into
something currently hard to observe.

At least on linux, set_ps_display() breaks /proc/$pid/environ. The sanitizer's
helper library uses /proc/$pid/environ to implement getenv(), as it wants to
work independent of libc. When just using undefined and alignment sanitizers,
the sanitizer library is only initialized when the first error occurs, by
which time we've often already called set_ps_display(), preventing the
sanitizer libraries from seeing the options.
We can work around that by defining __ubsan_default_options, a weak symbol
libsanitizer uses to get defaults from the application, and return
getenv("UBSAN_OPTIONS"). But only if main already was reached, so that we
don't end up relying on a not-yet-working getenv().
As it's just a function that won't get called when not running a sanitizer, it
doesn't seem necessary to make compilation of the function conditional.

The postmaster normally sends SIGQUIT to force-terminate its
child processes after a child crash or immediate-stop request.
If that doesn't result in child exit within a few seconds,
we follow it up with SIGKILL. This patch provides GUC flags
that allow either of these signals to be replaced with SIGABRT.
On typically-configured Unix systems, that will result in a
core dump being produced for each such child. This can be
useful for debugging problems, although it's not something you'd
want to have on in production due to the risk of disk space
bloat from lots of core files.
The old postmaster -T switch, which sent SIGSTOP in place of
SIGQUIT, is changed to be the same as send_abort_for_crash.
As far as I can tell from the code comments, the intent of
that switch was just to block things for long enough to force
core dumps manually, which seems like an unnecessary extra step.
(Maybe at the time, there was no way to get most kernels to
produce core files with per-PID names, requiring manual core
file renaming after each one. But now it's surely the hard way.)
I also took the opportunity to remove the old postmaster -n
(skip shmem reinit) switch, which hasn't actually done anything
in decades, though the documentation still claimed it did.

This switch impacts 9 patterns related to a SQL-mandated special syntax

- LOCALTIMESTAMP [ ( typmod ) ]
- CURRENT_TIME [ ( typmod ) ]
- CURRENT_TIMESTAMP [ ( typmod ) ]
- CURRENT_DATE
Five new entries are added to pg_proc to compensate the removal of
SQLValueFunction to provide backward-compatibility and making this
change transparent for the end-user (for example for the attribute
generated when a keyword is specified in a SELECT or in a FROM clause
without an alias, or when specifying something else than an Iconst to
the parser).
The parser included a set of checks coming from the files in charge of
holding the C functions used for the SQLValueFunction calls (as of
transformSQLValueFunction()), which are now moved within each function's
execution path, so this reduces the dependencies between the execution
and the parsing steps. As of this change, all the SQL keywords use the
same paths for their work, relying only on COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX. Like
fb32748, no performance difference has been noticed, while the perf
profiles get reduced with ExecEvalSQLValueFunction() gone.

Until now LWLockDequeueSelf() sequentially searched the list of waiters to see
if the current proc is still is on the list of waiters, or has already been
removed. In extreme workloads, where the wait lists are very long, this leads
to a quadratic behavior. #backends iterating over a list #backends
long. Additionally, the likelihood of needing to call LWLockDequeueSelf() in
the first place also increases with the increased length of the wait queue, as
it becomes more likely that a lock is released while waiting for the wait list
lock, which is held for longer during lock release.
Due to the exponential back-off in perform_spin_delay() this is surprisingly
hard to detect. We should make that easier, e.g. by adding a wait event around
the pg_usleep() - but that's a separate patch.
The fix is simple - track whether a proc is currently waiting in the wait list
or already removed but waiting to be woken up in PGPROC->lwWaiting.
In some workloads with a lot of clients contending for a small number of
lwlocks (e.g. WALWriteLock), the fix can substantially increase throughput.
As the quadratic behavior arguably is a bug, we might want to decide to
backpatch this fix in the future.

This commit changes six SQL keywords to use COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX rather
than relying on SQLValueFunction:
- CURRENT_ROLE
- CURRENT_USER
- USER
- SESSION_USER
- CURRENT_CATALOG
- CURRENT_SCHEMA
Among the six, "user", "current_role" and "current_catalog" require
specific SQL functions to allow ruleutils.c to map them to the SQL
keywords these require when using COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX. Having
pg_proc.proname match with the keyword ensures that the compatibility
remains the same when projecting any of these keywords in a FROM clause
to an attribute name when an alias is not specified. This is covered by
the tests added in 2e0d80c, making sure that a correct mapping happens
with each SQL keyword. The three others (current_schema, session_user
and current_user) already have pg_proc entries for this job, so this
brings more consistency between the way such keywords are treated in the
parser, the executor and ruleutils.c.
SQLValueFunction is reduced to half its contents after this change,
simplifying its logic a bit as there is no need to enforce a C collation
anymore for the entries returning a name as a result. I have made a few
performance tests, with a million-ish calls to these keywords without
seeing a difference in run-time or in perf profiles
(ExecEvalSQLValueFunction() is removed from the profiles). The
remaining SQLValueFunctions are now related to timestamps and dates.

Similar to how the INHERIT option controls whether or not the
permissions of the granted role are automatically available to the
grantee, the new SET permission controls whether or not the grantee
may use the SET ROLE command to assume the privileges of the granted
role.
In addition, the new SET permission controls whether or not it
is possible to transfer ownership of objects to the target role
or to create new objects owned by the target role using commands
such as CREATE DATABASE .. OWNER. We could alternatively have made
this controlled by the INHERIT option, or allow it when either
option is given. An advantage of this approach is that if you
are granted a predefined role with INHERIT TRUE, SET FALSE, you
can't go and create objects owned by that role.
The underlying theory here is that the ability to create objects
as a target role is not a privilege per se, and thus does not
depend on whether you inherit the target role's privileges. However,
it's surely something you could do anyway if you could SET ROLE
to the target role, and thus making it contingent on whether you
have that ability is reasonable.

This can be a bit expensive with high statistics targets, leading
to wasted effort in common cases such as joining a unique column

Standardize on the name snapshotConflictHorizon for all XID fields from
WAL records that generate recovery conflicts when in hot standby mode.
This supersedes the previous latestRemovedXid naming convention.
The new naming convention places emphasis on how the values are actually
used by REDO routines. How the values are generated during original
execution (details of which vary by record type) is deemphasized. Users
of tools like pg_waldump can now grep for snapshotConflictHorizon to see
all potential sources of recovery conflicts in a standardized way,
without necessarily having to consider which specific record types might
be involved.
Also bring a couple of WAL record types that didn't follow any kind of
naming convention into line. These are heapam's VISIBLE record type and
SP-GiST's VACUUM_REDIRECT record type. Now every WAL record whose REDO
routine calls ResolveRecoveryConflictWithSnapshot() passes through the
snapshotConflictHorizon field from its WAL record. This is follow-up
work to the refactoring from commit 9e540599 that made FREEZE_PAGE WAL
records use a standard snapshotConflictHorizon style XID cutoff.

response ('E') or an authentication request ('R'). Before processing
the message, it ensures it has read enough bytes to correspond to the
length specified in the message. However, when processing the 'R'
message, if an EOF status is returned it loops back waiting for more
input, even though we already checked that we have enough input. In
this particular case, this is probably not reachable anyway, because
other code ensures we have enough bytes for an authentication request
message, but the code is wrong and misleading. In the more general
case, processing a faulty message could result in an EOF status, which

Implement a data structure that is a List of Bitmapsets, which is
essentially a 2-D boolean array except that the rows need not all
be the same width. Operations such as union and intersection are
meaningful for these, just as they are for Bitmapsets. Eventually
we might build many of the same operations that we have written for
Bitmapsets, but for the first use-case we just need a few.
That first use-case is for antijoin detection: reduce_outer_joins
needs to find the set of Vars that are certain to be non-null in a
successfully joined (not null-extended) left join row, and also
find the set of Vars subject to higher-level IS NULL constraints,
and intersect them. We had been doing this by making Lists of
the Var nodes and then using list_intersect, which works but is
pretty inefficient compared to a bitmapset-like intersection.
Potentially it's O(N^2) if there are a lot of Vars involved,
which fortunately there generally aren't; still it's not great.
Moreover, that method requires the Vars of interest to be exactly
equal() in the join condition and the upper IS NULL condition,
which is problematic for my WIP patch that labels Vars according
to which outer joins have possibly nulled them.

This commit improves two code paths to open and close indexes a
minimum amount of times when doing a series of catalog updates or
inserts. CatalogTupleInsert() is costly when using it for multiple
inserts or updates compared to CatalogTupleInsertWithInfo(), as it would
need to open and close the indexes of the catalog worked each time an
operation is done.
This commit updates the following places:
- REINDEX CONCURRENTLY when copying statistics from one index relation
to the other. Multi-INSERTs are avoided here, as this would begin to
show benefits only for indexes with multiple expressions, for example,
which may not be the most common pattern. This change is noticeable in
profiles with indexes having many expressions, for example, and it would
improve any callers of CopyStatistics().
- Update of statistics on ANALYZE, that mixes inserts and updates.
In each case, the catalog indexes are opened only if at least one
insertion and/or update is required, to minimize the cost of the
operation. Like the previous coding, no indexes are opened as long as
at least one insert or update of pg_statistic has happened.

Make heapam WAL records that describe freezing performed by VACUUM more
space efficient by storing each distinct "freeze plan" once, alongside
an array of associated page offset numbers (one per freeze plan). The
freeze plans required for most heap pages tend to naturally have a great
deal of redundancy, so this technique is very effective in practice. It
often leads to freeze WAL records that are less than 20% of the size of
equivalent WAL records generated using the previous approach.
The freeze plan concept was introduced by commit 3b97e6823b, which fixed
bugs in VACUUM's handling of MultiXacts. We retain the concept of
freeze plans, but go back to using page offset number arrays. There is
no loss of generality here because deduplication is an additive process
that gets applied mechanically when FREEZE_PAGE WAL records are built.
More than anything else, freeze plan deduplication is an optimization
that reduces the marginal cost of freezing additional tuples on pages
that will need to have at least one or two tuples frozen in any case.
Ongoing work that adds page-level freezing to VACUUM will take full
advantage of the improved cost profile through batching.
Also refactor some of the details surrounding recovery conflicts needed
to REDO freeze records in passing: make original execution responsible
for generating a standard latestRemovedXid cutoff, rather than working
backwards to get the same cutoff in the REDO routine. Bugfix commit
66fbcb0d2e did it the other way around, which is equivalent but obscures
what's going on.
Also rename the cutoff field from the WAL record/struct (rename the
field cutoff_xid to latestRemovedXid to match similar WAL records).
Processing of conflicts by REDO routines is already completely uniform,
so tools like pg_waldump should present the information driving the
process uniformly. There are two remaining WAL record types that still
don't quite follow this convention (heapam's VISIBLE record type and
SP-GiST's VACUUM_REDIRECT record type). They can be brought into line
by later work that totally standardizes how the cutoffs are presented.

Some callers didn't check the return value of pclose() or
ClosePipeStream() correctly. Either they didn't check it at all or
they treated it like the return of fclose().
The correct way is to first check whether the return value is -1, and
then report errno, and then check the return value like a result from
system(), for which we already have wait_result_to_str() to make it
simpler. To make this more compact, expand wait_result_to_str() to
also handle -1 explicitly.

libpq now contains a mix of error message strings that end with
newlines and don't end with newlines, due to some newer code paths
with new ways of passing errors around. This leads to confusion and
mistakes both during development and translation.
This adds new functions libpq_append_error() and
libpq_append_conn_error() that encapsulate common code paths for
producing error message strings. Notably, these functions append the
newline, so that the string appearing in the code does not end with a
newline. This makes (almost) all error message strings in libpq
uniform in this regard (and also consistent with how we handle it
outside of libpq code). (There are a few exceptions that are
difficult to fit into this scheme, but they are only a few.)

The parsing of the authentication files for HBA and ident entries
happens in two phases:
- Tokenization of the files, creating a list of TokenizedAuthLines.
- Validation of the HBA and ident entries, building a set of HbaLines or
IdentLines.
The second phase doing the validation provides already some error
context about the configuration file and the line where a problem
happens, but there is no such information in the first phase when
tokenizing the files. This commit adds an ErrorContextCallback in
tokenize_auth_file(), with a context made of the line number and the
configuration file name involved in a problem. This is useful for files
included in an HBA file for user and database lists, and it will become
much more handy to track problems for files included via a potential
@include[_dir,_if_exists].
The error context is registered so as the full chain of events is
reported when using cascaded inclusions when for example
tokenize_auth_file() recurses over itself on new files, displaying one
context line for each file gone through when tokenizing things.

This adds a check on the recursion depth when including authentication
configuration files, something that has never been done when processing
'@' files for database and user name lists in pg_hba.conf. On HEAD,
this was leading to a rather confusing error, as of:
FATAL: exceeded maxAllocatedDescs (NN) while trying to open file "/path/blah.conf"
This refactors the code so as the error reported is now the following,
which is the same as for GUCs:
FATAL: could not open file "/path/blah.conf": maximum nesting depth exceeded
This reduces a bit the verbosity of the error message used for files
included in user and database lists, reporting only the file name of
what's failing to load, without mentioning the relative or absolute path
specified after '@' in a HBA file. The absolute path is built upon what
'@' defines anyway, so there is no actual loss of information. This
makes the future inclusion logic much simpler. A follow-up patch will
add an error context to be able to track on which line of which file the
inclusion is failing, to close the loop, providing all the information
needed to know the full chain of events.
This logic has been extracted from a larger patch written by Julien,
rewritten by me to have a unique code path calling AllocateFile() on
authentication files, and is useful on its own. This new interface
will be used later for authentication files included with
@include[_dir,_if_exists], in a follow-up patch.

Add a NodeTag field to struct Bitmapset. This is free because of
alignment considerations on 64-bit hardware. While it adds some
space on 32-bit machines, we aren't optimizing for that case anymore.
The advantage is that data structures such as Lists of Bitmapsets
are now first-class objects to the Node infrastructure, and don't
require special-case code to handle.
This patch includes removal of one such special case, in indxpath.c:
bms_equal_any() can now be replaced by list_member(). There may be
more existing code that could be simplified, but I didn't look very
hard. We also get to drop the read_write_ignore annotations on a
couple of RelOptInfo fields.
The outfuncs/readfuncs support is arranged so that nothing changes
in the string representation of a Bitmapset field; therefore, this
doesn't need a catversion bump.

The original report was concerned with a possible inconsistency
between the heap and the visibility map, which I was unable to
confirm. The concern has been retracted.
However, there did seem to be a torn page hazard when using
checksums. By not setting the heap page LSN during redo, the
protections of minRecoveryPoint were bypassed. Fixed, along with a
misleading comment.
It may have been impossible to hit this problem in practice, because
it would require a page tear between the checksum and the flags, so I
am marking this as a theoretical risk. But, as discussed, it did
violate expectations about the page LSN, so it may have other
consequences.

The stanza "SET STORAGE may need to add a TOAST table" does not

Replace the stopgap fix I made in 0e758ae89 with a cleaner one.
The real problem with 4ab5dae94 is that it contorted this function's
logic substantially, by introducing a third code path that required
different behavior in the function's main loop. That seems quite
unnecessary on closer inspection: the new IsBinaryUpgrade case can
just share the behavior of the other immediate-unlink cases. Hence,
revert 4ab5dae94 and most of 0e758ae89 (keeping the latter's
save/restore errno fix), and add IsBinaryUpgrade to the set of
conditions tested to choose immediate unlink.
Also fix some additional places with sloppy handling of errno,
to ensure we have an invariant that we always continue processing
after any non-ENOENT failure of do_truncate. I doubt that that's
fixing any bug of field importance, so I don't feel it necessary to
back-patch; but we might as well get it right while we're here.
Also improve the comments, which had drifted a bit from what the
code actually does, and neglected to mention some important

The code building an absolute path to a file included, as prefixed by
'@' in authentication files, for user and database lists uses the same
logic as for GUCs, except that it has no need to know about DataDir as
there is always a calling file to rely to build the base directory path.
The refactoring done in a1a7bb8 makes this move straight-forward, and
unifies the code used for GUCs and authentication files, and the
intention is to rely also on that for the upcoming patch to be able to
include full files from HBA or ident files.
Note that this gets rid of an inconsistency introduced in 370f909, that
copied the logic coming from GUCs but applied it for files included in
authentication files, where the result buffer given to
join_path_components() must have a size of MAXPGPATH. Based on a
double-check of the existing code, all the other callers of
join_path_components() already do that, except the code path changed
here.

The planner simplifies boolean comparisons such as "x = true" and
"x = false" down to "x" and "NOT x" respectively, to have a canonical
form to ease comparisons. However, if we want to use an index on x,
the index AM APIs require us to reconstitute the comparison-operator
form of the indexqual. While that works, in bitmap indexscans the
canonical form of the qual was emitted as a "filter" condition
although it really only needs to be a "recheck" condition, because
create_bitmap_scan_plan didn't recognize the equivalence of that
form with the generated indexqual. booleq() is pretty cheap so that
likely doesn't make very much difference, but it's unsightly so
let's clean it up.
To fix, add a case to predicate_implied_by() to recognize the
equivalence of such clauses. This is a relatively low-cost place to
add a check, and perhaps it will have additional use cases in future.

Commit 4ab5dae94 broke mdunlinkfork's logic for removing additional
segments of a multi-gigabyte table, because it neglected to advance
"segno" after unlinking the first segment, in the code path where it
chooses to unlink that one immediately. Then the main remove loop
gets ENOENT at segment zero and figures it's done, so we never remove
whatever additional segments might exist.
The main problem here is with large temporary tables, but WAL replay
of a drop of a large regular table would also fail to remove extra
segments. The third case where this path is taken is for non-main
forks; but I doubt it matters for those since they probably never
exceed 1GB.
The simplest fix is just to increment segno after that unlink().
(Probably this logic could do with a more thorough rethink, but not
with mere hours to go before 15.1 wraps.)
While here, also fix an incautious assumption that
register_forget_request cannot change errno. I don't think that
that has any really bad consequences, as we'd end up trying to unlink
the zero'th segment either way, but it greatly complicates reasoning
about what could happen here. Also make a couple of other cosmetic
fixes.
