Robert Haas 4212cb7326 Fix interaction of parallel query with prepared statements.
Previously, a prepared statement created via a Parse message could get
a parallel plan, but one created with a PREPARE statement could not.
This state of affairs was due to confusion on my (rhaas) part: I
erroneously believed that a CREATE TABLE .. AS EXECUTE statement could
only be performed with a prepared statement by PREPARE, but in fact
one created by a Prepare message works just as well.  Therefore, it
makes no sense to allow parallel query in one case but not the other.

To fix, allow parallel query with all prepared statements, but run
the parallel plan serially (i.e. without workers) in the case of
CREATE TABLE .. AS EXECUTE.  Also, document this.

Amit Kapila and Tobias Bussman, plus an extra sentence of
documentation by me.

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:

	http://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
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
