Tomas Vondra f24523672d Use per-tuple context in ExecGetAllUpdatedCols
Commit fc22b6623b (generated columns) replaced ExecGetUpdatedCols() with
ExecGetAllUpdatedCols() in a couple places handling UPDATE (triggers and
lock mode). However, ExecGetUpdatedCols() did exec_rt_fetch() while
ExecGetAllUpdatedCols() also allocates memory through bms_union()
without paying attention to the memory context and happened to use the
long-lived ExecutorState, leaking the memory until the end of the query.

The amount of leaked memory is proportional to the number of (updated)
attributes, types of UPDATE triggers, and the number of processed rows
(which for UPDATE ... FROM ... may be much higher than updated rows).

Fixed by switching to the per-tuple context in GetAllUpdatedColumns().
This is fine for all in-core callers, but external callers may need to
copy the result. But we're not aware of any such callers.

Note the issue was introduced by fc22b6623b, but the macros were later
renamed by f50e888990.

Backpatch to 12, where the issue was introduced.

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/.
