Tom Lane 078303f79b Fix misapplication of pgstat_count_truncate to wrong relation.
The stanza of ExecuteTruncate[Guts] that truncates a target table's toast
relation re-used the loop local variable "rel" to reference the toast rel.
This was safe enough when written, but commit d42358efb added code below
that that supposed "rel" still pointed to the parent table.  Therefore,
the stats counter update was applied to the wrong relcache entry (the
toast rel not the user rel); and if we were unlucky and that relcache
entry had been flushed during reindex_relation, very bad things could
ensue.

(I'm surprised that CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS testing hasn't found this.
I'm even more surprised that the problem wasn't detected during the
development of d42358efb; it must not have been tested in any case
with a toast table, as the incorrect stats counts are very obvious.)

To fix, replace use of "rel" in that code branch with a more local
variable.  Adjust test cases added by d42358efb so that some of them
use tables with toast tables.

Per bug #15540 from Pan Bian.  Back-patch to 9.5 where d42358efb came in.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
