Revert 403a3d91c, as well as the followup fix 7f4235032, in all
branches. We need to think a bit harder about what the behavior
of LOCK TABLE on views should be, and there's no time for that
before next week's releases. We'll take another crack at this
later.

Now that LOCK TABLE can take any relation type, acquire lock on all
relations that are to be dumped. This prevents schema changes or
deadlock errors that could cause a dump to fail after expending much
effort. The server is tested to have the capability and the feature
disabled if it doesn't, so that a patched pg_dump doesn't fail when
connecting to an unpatched server.
Backpatch to 9.5.

Getting a synchronized snapshot is not supported on a hot standby node,
and is by default taken when using -j with multiple sessions. Trying to
do so still failed, but with a server error that would also go in the
log. Instead, proprely detect this case and give a better error message.
Most pg_dump.c global variables, which were passed down individually to
dumping routines, are now grouped as members of the new DumpOptions
struct, which is used as a local variable and passed down into routines
that need it. This helps future development efforts; in particular it
is said to enable a mode in which a parallel pg_dump run can output
multiple streams, and have them restored in parallel.
Also take the opportunity to clean up the pg_dump header files somewhat,
to avoid circularity.

This is another round of refactoring to make things simpler for parallel
pg_dump. pg_dump.c now issues SQL queries through the relevant Archive
object, rather than relying on the global variable g_conn. This commit
isn't quite enough to get rid of g_conn entirely, but it makes a big
dent in its utilization and, along the way, manages to be slightly less
code than before.
pg_backup_db.c contained a mini SQL lexer with which it tried to identify
boundaries between SQL commands, but that code was not designed to cope
with standard_conforming_strings, and would get the wrong answer if a
backslash immediately precedes a closing single quote in such a string,
as per report from Julian Mehnle. The bug only affects direct-to-database
restores from archive files made with standard_conforming_strings = on.
Rather than complicating the code some more to try to fix that, let's just
rip it all out. The only reason it was needed was to cope with COPY data
embedded into ordinary archive entries, which was a layout that was used
only for about the first three weeks of the archive format's existence,
and never in any production release of pg_dump. Instead, just rely on the
archive file layout to tell us whether we're printing COPY data or not.
This bug represents a data corruption hazard in all releases in which
standard_conforming_strings can be turned on, ie 8.2 and later, so
back-patch to all supported branches.
using the recently added lo_create() function. The restore logic in
pg_restore is greatly simplified as well, since there's no need anymore
to try to adjust database references to match a new set of blob OIDs.
object types, rather than by OID. This should help ensure consistent
dump output from databases that are logically the same but have different
histories, per recent discussion about 'diffing' databases. The patch
is bulky because of renaming of fields, but not very complicated.
Also, do some tweaking to cause BLOB restoration to be done in a better
order, and clean up pg_restore's textual output to exactly match pg_dump.
- Avoid forcing table name to lower case in FixupBlobXrefs
- Removed fmtId calls for all ArchiveEntry name fields. This fixes
quoting problems in trigger enable/disable code for mixed case
table names, and avoids commands like 'pg_restore -t '"TblA"'
- Support for BLOB output from pg_dump and input via pg_restore
- Support for direct DB connection in pg_restore
- Fixes in support for --insert flag
- pg_dump now outputs in modified OID order
