Tom Lane 0998f32ca3 Fix problems with auto-held portals.
HoldPinnedPortals() did things in the wrong order: it must not mark
a portal autoHeld until it's been successfully held.  Otherwise,
a failure while persisting the portal results in a server crash
because we think the portal is in a good state when it's not.

Also add a check that portal->status is READY before attempting to
hold a pinned portal.  We have such a check before the only other
use of HoldPortal(), so it seems unwise not to check it here.

Lastly, rethink the responsibility for where to call HoldPinnedPortals.
The comment for it imagined that it was optional for any individual PL
to call it or not, but that cannot be the case: if some outer level of
procedure has a pinned portal, failing to persist it when an inner
procedure commits is going to be trouble.  Let's have SPI do it instead
of the individual PLs.  That's not a complete solution, since in theory
a PL might not be using SPI to perform commit/rollback, but such a PL
is going to have to be aware of lots of related requirements anyway.
(This change doesn't cause an API break for any external PLs that might
be calling HoldPinnedPortals per the old regime, because calling it
twice during a commit or rollback sequence won't hurt.)

Per bug #15703 from Julian Schauder.  Back-patch to v11 where this code
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:

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.
