Tom Lane af119e08fd Dump more fields when dumping planner internal data structures.
Commit 964d01ae9 marked a lot of fields as read_write_ignore
to stay consistent with what was dumped by the manually-maintained
outfuncs.c code.  However, it seems that a pretty fair number
of those omissions were either flat-out oversights, or a shortcut
taken because hand-written code seemed like it'd be too much trouble.
Let's upgrade things where it seems to make sense to dump.

To do this, we need to add support to gen_node_support.pl and
outfuncs.c for variable-length arrays of Node pointers.  That's
pretty straightforward given the model of the existing code
for arrays of scalars, but I found I needed to tighten the
type-recognizing regexes in gen_node_support.pl.  (As they
stood, they mistook "foo **" for "foo *".  Make sure they're
all fully anchored to prevent additional problems.)

The main thing left un-done here is that a lot of partitioning-related
structs are still not dumped, because they are bare structs not Nodes.
I'm not sure about the wisdom of that choice ... but changing it would
be fairly invasive, so it probably requires more justification than
just making planner node dumps more complete.

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
