Tom Lane 3e707fbb40 psql: add \dconfig command to show server's configuration parameters. Plain \dconfig is basically equivalent to SHOW except that you can give it a pattern with wildcards, either to match multiple GUCs or because you don't exactly remember the name you want. \dconfig+ adds type, context, and access-privilege information, mainly because every other kind of object privilege has a psql command to show it, so GUC privileges should too. (A form of this command was in some versions of the patch series leading up to commit `a0ffa885e`. We pulled it out then because of doubts that the design and code were up to snuff, but I think subsequent work has resolved that.) In passing, fix incorrect completion of GUC names in GRANT/REVOKE ON PARAMETER: `a0ffa885e` neglected to use the VERBATIM form of COMPLETE_WITH_QUERY, so it misbehaved for custom (qualified) GUC names.

PostgreSQL tests
================

This directory contains a variety of test infrastructure as well as some of the
tests in PostgreSQL. Not all tests are here -- in particular, there are more in
individual contrib/ modules and in src/bin.

Not all these tests get run by "make check". Check src/test/Makefile to see
which tests get run automatically.

authentication/
  Tests for authentication (but see also below)

examples/
  Demonstration programs for libpq that double as regression tests via
  "make check"

isolation/
  Tests for concurrent behavior at the SQL level

kerberos/
  Tests for Kerberos/GSSAPI authentication and encryption

ldap/
  Tests for LDAP-based authentication

locale/
  Sanity checks for locale data, encodings, etc

mb/
  Tests for multibyte encoding (UTF-8) support

modules/
  Extensions used only or mainly for test purposes, generally not suitable
  for installing in production databases

perl/
  Infrastructure for Perl-based TAP tests

recovery/
  Test suite for recovery and replication

regress/
  PostgreSQL's main regression test suite, pg_regress

ssl/
  Tests to exercise and verify SSL certificate handling

subscription/
  Tests for logical replication
