Tom Lane c1b72bf045 Fix query-cancel handling in spgdoinsert().
Knowing that a buggy opclass could cause an infinite insertion loop,
spgdoinsert() intended to allow its loop to be interrupted by query
cancel.  However, that never actually worked, because in iterations
after the first, we'd be holding buffer lock(s) which would cause
InterruptHoldoffCount to be positive, preventing servicing of the
interrupt.

To fix, check if an interrupt is pending, and if so fall out of
the insertion loop and service the interrupt after we've released
the buffers.  If it was indeed a query cancel, that's the end of
the matter.  If it was a non-canceling interrupt reason, make use
of the existing provision to retry the whole insertion.  (This isn't
as wasteful as it might seem, since any upper-level index tuples we
already created should be usable in the next attempt.)

While there's no known instance of such a bug in existing release
branches, it still seems like a good idea to back-patch this to
all supported branches, since the behavior is fairly nasty if a
loop does happen --- not only is it uncancelable, but it will
quickly consume memory to the point of an OOM failure.  In any
case, this code is certainly not working as intended.

Per report from Dilip Kumar.

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
