With the addition of INHERIT and SET options for role grants,
the historical display of role memberships in \du/\dg is woefully
inadequate. Besides those options, there are pre-existing
shortcomings that you can't see the ADMIN option nor the grantor.
To fix this, remove the "Member of" column from \du/\dg altogether
(making that output usefully narrower), and invent a new meta-command
"\drg" that is specifically for displaying role memberships. It
shows one row for each role granted to the selected role(s), with
the grant options and grantor.
We would not normally back-patch such a feature addition post
feature freeze, but in this case the change is mainly driven by
v16 changes in the server, so it seems appropriate to include it
in v16.

Until now, when DROP DATABASE got interrupted in the wrong moment, the removal
of the pg_database row would also roll back, even though some irreversible
steps have already been taken. E.g. DropDatabaseBuffers() might have thrown
out dirty buffers, or files could have been unlinked. But we continued to
allow connections to such a corrupted database.
To fix this, mark databases invalid with an in-place update, just before
starting to perform irreversible steps. As we can't add a new column in the
back branches, we use pg_database.datconnlimit = -2 for this purpose.
An invalid database cannot be connected to anymore, but can still be
dropped.
Unfortunately we can't easily add output to psql's \l to indicate that some
database is invalid, it doesn't fit in any of the existing columns.
Add tests verifying that a interrupted DROP DATABASE is handled correctly in
the backend and in various tools.

Backpatch: 11-, bug present in all supported versions
Commit e213de8e78 fixed a problem with path lengths to a tempdir on
Windows, but caused problems on at least some Unix systems where the
system tempdir is on a different file system. To work around this, only
used the system temdir for the destination of pg_replslot on Windows,
and otherwise restore the old behaviour.
Backpatch to relase 14 like the previous patch.
Problem exposed by a myriad of buildfarm animals.
The symlink to a longer location tripped up some Windows limit on
buildfarm animal fairywren when running with meson, which uses slightly
longer paths.
Backpatch to all live branches to keep the script in sync.
On Windows, it's sometimes difficult to create a file with a path longer
than 255 chars, and if it can be created it might not be seen by the
archiver. This can be triggered by the test for tar backups with
filenames greater than 100 bytes. So we skip that test if the path would
exceed 255.

Not including the timeline IDs to the file names generated by pg_waldump
for the individual blocks saved could cause some of these files to be
overwritten when scanning segments across multiple timelines. Having
this information is also as much useful as the LSNs, to be able to know
from exactly which WAL segment a block is comes from.
While on it, this fixes a few comments in the tests, where the format of
the file was not described as matching with the reality.

While executing maintenance operations (ANALYZE, CLUSTER, REFRESH

Functions that are used for functional indexes, in index expressions,

This change addresses a security risk introduced in commit 60684dd834,

A new-style SQL function can contain a parse-time dependency
on a unique index, much as views and matviews can (such cases
arise from GROUP BY and ON CONFLICT clauses, for example).
To dump and restore such a function successfully, pg_dump must
postpone the function until after the unique index is created,
which will happen in the post-data part of the dump. Therefore
we have to remove the normal constraint that functions are
dumped in pre-data. Add code similar to the existing logic
that handles this for matviews. I added test cases for both
as well, since code coverage tests showed that we weren't
testing the matview logic.
Per report from Sami Imseih. Back-patch to v14 where
new-style SQL functions came in.

Two places in pg_dump_sort.c were using pg_log_info() to add
more details to a message printed with pg_log_warning().
This is bad, because at default verbosity level we would
print the warning line but not the details. One should use
pg_log_warning_detail() or pg_log_warning_hint() instead.
Commit 9a374b77f got rid of most such abuses, but unaccountably
missed these.
Noted while studying a bug report from Sami Imseih.

don't have the missing-details misbehavior, for reasons
I didn't bother to track down.)

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

LZ4File_write() did not advance the input pointer on subsequent invocations of
LZ4F_compressUpdate(). As a result the generated compressed output would be a
compressed version of the same input chunk.
Tests failed to catch this error because the data would comfortably fit
within the default buffer size, as a single chunk. Tests have been added
to provide adequate coverage of multi-chunk compression.
WriteDataToArchiveLZ4() which is also using LZ4F_compressUpdate() did
not suffer from this omission.

Don't use PSQL_WATCH_PAGER when stdin/stdout are not a terminal.
This corresponds to the restrictions on when other commands will
use [PSQL_]PAGER. There isn't a lot of sense in trying to use a
pager in non-interactive cases, and doing so allows an environment
setting to break our tests.
Also, ignore PSQL_WATCH_PAGER if it is set but empty or all-blank,
for the same reasons we ignore such settings of [PSQL_]PAGER (see
commit 18f8f784c).
No documentation change is really needed, since there is nothing
suggesting that these constraints on [PSQL_]PAGER didn't already
apply to PSQL_WATCH_PAGER too. But I rearranged the text
a little to make it read more naturally (IMHO anyway).
Per report from Pavel Stehule. Back-patch to v15 where
PSQL_WATCH_PAGER was introduced.

As written, pg_dump would call twice parse_compress_specification() for
the custom and directory formats to build a compression specification if
no compression option is defined, as these formats should be compressed
by default when compiled with zlib, or use no compression without zlib.
This made the code logic quite confusing, and the first compression
specification built would be incorrect before being overwritten by the
second one.
Rather than creating two compression specifications, this commit changes
a bit the order of the checks for the compression options so as
compression_algorithm_str is now set to a correct value for the custom
and format directory when no compression option is defined. This makes
the code easier to understand, as parse_compress_specification() is now
called once for all the format, with or without user-specified
compression methods. One comment was also confusing for the non-zlib
case, so remove it while on it.
This code has been introduced in 5e73a60 when adding support for
compression specifications in pg_dump.
Per discussion with Justin Pryzby and Georgios Kokolatos.
