Fix replay of create database records on standby 
Crash recovery on standby may encounter missing directories
when replaying database-creation WAL records.  Prior to this
patch, the standby would fail to recover in such a case;
however, the directories could be legitimately missing.
Consider the following sequence of commands:

    CREATE DATABASE
    DROP DATABASE
    DROP TABLESPACE

If, after replaying the last WAL record and removing the
tablespace directory, the standby crashes and has to replay the
create database record again, crash recovery must be able to continue.

A fix for this problem was already attempted in 49d9cfc68b, but it
was reverted because of design issues.  This new version is based
on Robert Haas' proposal: any missing tablespaces are created
during recovery before reaching consistency.  Tablespaces
are created as real directories, and should be deleted
by later replay.  CheckRecoveryConsistency ensures
they have disappeared.

The problems detected by this new code are reported as PANIC,
except when allow_in_place_tablespaces is set to ON, in which
case they are WARNING.  Apart from making tests possible, this
gives users an escape hatch in case things don't go as planned.

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