Tom Lane a9ed875fdc Code review for tqueue.c: fix memory leaks, speed it up, other fixes.
When doing record typmod remapping, tqueue.c did fresh catalog lookups
for each tuple it processed, which was pretty horrible performance-wise
(it seemed to about halve the already none-too-quick speed of bulk reads
in parallel mode).  Worse, it insisted on putting bits of that data into
TopMemoryContext, from where it never freed them, causing a
session-lifespan memory leak.  (I suppose this was coded with the idea
that the sender process would quit after finishing the query ---
but the receiver uses the same code.)

Restructure to avoid repetitive catalog lookups and to keep that data
in a query-lifespan context, in or below the context where the
TQueueDestReceiver or TupleQueueReader itself lives.

Fix some other bugs such as continuing to use a tupledesc after
releasing our refcount on it.  Clean up cavalier datatype choices
(typmods are int32, please, not int, and certainly not Oid).  Improve
comments and error message wording.

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
