Tom Lane babe545cae Avoid leaking memory during large-scale REASSIGN OWNED BY operations. 
The various ALTER OWNER routines tend to leak memory in
CurrentMemoryContext.  That's not a problem when they're only called
once per command; but in this usage where we might be touching many
objects, it can amount to a serious memory leak.  Fix that by running
each call in a short-lived context.

(DROP OWNED BY likely has a similar issue, except that you'll probably
run out of lock table space before noticing.  REASSIGN is worth fixing
since for most non-table object types, it won't take any lock.)

Back-patch to all supported branches.  Unfortunately, in the back
branches this helps to only a limited extent, since the sinval message
queue bloats quite a lot in this usage before commit 3aafc030a,
consuming memory more or less comparable to what's actually leaked.
Still, it's clearly a leak with a simple fix, so we might as well fix it.

Justin Pryzby, per report from Guillaume Lelarge

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/.
