substituting a child rel's output expressions into the appendrel's restriction
clauses yields a pseudoconstant restriction. We might be able to skip scanning
that child rel entirely (if we get constant FALSE), or generate a one-time
filter. 8.3 more or less accidentally generated plans that weren't completely
stupid in these cases, but that was only because an extra recursive level of
subquery_planner() always occurred and allowed const-simplification to happen.
8.4's ability to pull up appendrel members with non-Var outputs exposes the
fact that we need to work harder here. Per gripe from Sergey Burladyan.

joins a bit better, ie, understand the differing cost functions for matched
and unmatched outer tuples. There is more that could be done in cost_hashjoin
but this already helps a great deal. Per discussions with Robert Haas.

constants through full joins, as in
select * from tenk1 a full join tenk1 b using (unique1)
where unique1 = 42;
which should generate a fairly cheap plan where we apply the constraint
unique1 = 42 in each relation scan. This had been broken by my patch of
2008-06-27, which is now reverted in favor of a more invasive but hopefully
less incorrect approach. That patch was meant to prevent incorrect extraction
of OR'd indexclauses from OR conditions above an outer join. To do that
correctly we need more information than the outerjoin_delay flag can provide,
so add a nullable_relids field to RestrictInfo that records exactly which
relations are nulled by outer joins that are underneath a particular qual
clause. A side benefit is that we can make the test in create_or_index_quals
more specific: it is now smart enough to extract an OR'd indexclause into the
outer side of an outer join, even though it must not do so in the inner side.
The old coding couldn't distinguish these cases so it could not do either.

keys when considering a semi or anti join. This requires estimating the
selectivity of the merge qual as though it were a regular inner join condition.
To allow caching both that and the real outer-join-aware selectivity, split
RestrictInfo.this_selec into two fields.
This fixes one of the problems reported by Kevin Grittner.

which I had removed in the first cut of the EquivalenceClass rewrite to
simplify that patch a little. But it's still important --- in a four-way
join problem mergejoinscansel() was eating about 40% of the planning time
according to gprof. Also, improve the EquivalenceClass code to re-use
join RestrictInfos rather than generating fresh ones for each join
considered. This saves some memory space but more importantly improves
the effectiveness of caching planning info in RestrictInfos.

representation of equivalence classes of variables. This is an extensive
rewrite, but it brings a number of benefits:
* planner no longer fails in the presence of "incomplete" operator families
that don't offer operators for every possible combination of datatypes.
* avoid generating and then discarding redundant equality clauses.
* remove bogus assumption that derived equalities always use operators
named "=".
* mergejoins can work with a variety of sort orders (e.g., descending) now,
instead of tying each mergejoinable operator to exactly one sort order.
* better recognition of redundant sort columns.
* can make use of equalities appearing underneath an outer join.

cases. Operator classes now exist within "operator families". While most
families are equivalent to a single class, related classes can be grouped
into one family to represent the fact that they are semantically compatible.
Cross-type operators are now naturally adjunct parts of a family, without
having to wedge them into a particular opclass as we had done originally.
This commit restructures the catalogs and cleans up enough of the fallout so
that everything still works at least as well as before, but most of the work
needed to actually improve the planner's behavior will come later. Also,
there are not yet CREATE/DROP/ALTER OPERATOR FAMILY commands; the only way
to create a new family right now is to allow CREATE OPERATOR CLASS to make
one by default. I owe some more documentation work, too. But that can all
be done in smaller pieces once this infrastructure is in place.

clauses containing no variables and no volatile functions. Such a clause
can be used as a one-time qual in a gating Result plan node, to suppress
plan execution entirely when it is false. Even when the clause is true,
putting it in a gating node wins by avoiding repeated evaluation of the
clause. In previous PG releases, query_planner() would do this for
pseudoconstant clauses appearing at the top level of the jointree, but
there was no ability to generate a gating Result deeper in the plan tree.
To fix it, get rid of the special case in query_planner(), and instead
process pseudoconstant clauses through the normal RestrictInfo qual
distribution mechanism. When a pseudoconstant clause is found attached to
a path node in create_plan(), pull it out and generate a gating Result at
that point. This requires special-casing pseudoconstants in selectivity
estimation and cost_qual_eval, but on the whole it's pretty clean.
It probably even makes the planner a bit faster than before for the normal
case of no pseudoconstants, since removing pull_constant_clauses saves one
useless traversal of the qual tree. Per gripe from Phil Frost.

output, ie, no OR immediately below an OR. Otherwise we get Asserts or
wrong answers for cases such as
select * from tenk1 a, tenk1 b
where (a.ten = b.ten and (a.unique1 = 100 or a.unique1 = 101))
or (a.hundred = b.hundred and a.unique1 = 42);

qualification when the underlying operator is indexable and useOr is true.
That is, indexkey op ANY (ARRAY[...]) is effectively translated into an
OR combination of one indexscan for each array element. This only works
for bitmap index scans, of course, since regular indexscans no longer
support OR'ing of scans. There are still some loose ends to clean up
before changing 'x IN (list)' to translate as a ScalarArrayOpExpr;
for instance predtest.c ought to be taught about it. But this gets the
basic functionality in place.

sense and rename to "outerjoin_delayed" to more clearly reflect what it
means). I had decided that it was redundant in 8.1, but the folly of this
is exposed by a bug report from Sebastian Böck. The place where it's
needed is to prevent orindxpath.c from cherry-picking arms of an outer-join
OR clause to form a relation restriction that isn't actually legal to push
down to the relation scan level. There may be some legal cases that this
forbids optimizing, but we'd need much closer analysis to determine it.

make_restrictinfo_from_bitmapqual. The likelihood of finding duplicates
seems much less than in the AND-subclause case, and the cost much higher,
because OR lists with hundreds or even thousands of subclauses are not
uncommon. Per discussion with Ilia Kantor and andrew@supernews.

planning logic for bitmap indexscans. Partial indexes create corner
cases in which a scan might be done with no explicit index qual conditions,
and the code wasn't handling those cases nicely. Also be a little
tenser about eliminating redundant clauses in the generated plan.

propagated inside an outer join. In particular, given
LEFT JOIN ON (A = B) WHERE A = constant, we cannot conclude that
B = constant at the top level (B might be null instead), but we
can nonetheless put a restriction B = constant into the quals for
B's relation, since no inner-side rows not meeting that condition
can contribute to the final result. Similarly, given
FULL JOIN USING (J) WHERE J = constant, we can't directly conclude
that either input J variable = constant, but it's OK to push such
quals into each input rel. Per recent gripe from Kim Bisgaard.
Along the way, remove 'valid_everywhere' flag from RestrictInfo,
as on closer analysis it was not being used for anything, and was
defined backwards anyway.

of a relation in a flat 'joininfo' list. The former arrangement grouped
the join clauses according to the set of unjoined relids used in each;
however, profiling on test cases involving lots of joins proves that
that data structure is a net loss. It takes more time to group the
join clauses together than is saved by avoiding duplicate tests later.
It doesn't help any that there are usually not more than one or two
clauses per group ...

a new PlannerInfo struct, which is passed around instead of the bare
Query in all the planning code. This commit is essentially just a
code-beautification exercise, but it does open the door to making
larger changes to the planner data structures without having to muck
with the widely-known Query struct.

node, as this behavior is now better done as a bitmap OR indexscan.
This allows considerable simplification in nodeIndexscan.c itself as
well as several planner modules concerned with indexscan plan generation.
Also we can improve the sharing of code between regular and bitmap
indexscans, since they are now working with nigh-identical Plan nodes.

but the code is basically working. Along the way, rewrite the entire
approach to processing OR index conditions, and make it work in join
cases for the first time ever. orindxpath.c is now basically obsolete,
but I left it in for the time being to allow easy comparison testing
against the old implementation.

really ought to run before canonicalize_qual, because it can now produce
forms that canonicalize_qual knows how to improve (eg, NOT clauses).
Also, because eval_const_expressions already knows about flattening
nested ANDs and ORs into N-argument form, the initial flatten_andors
pass in canonicalize_qual is now completely redundant and can be
removed. This doesn't save a whole lot of code, but the time and
palloc traffic eliminated is a useful gain on large expression trees.

In the past, we used a 'Lispy' linked list implementation: a "list" was
merely a pointer to the head node of the list. The problem with that
design is that it makes lappend() and length() linear time. This patch
fixes that problem (and others) by maintaining a count of the list
length and a pointer to the tail node along with each head node pointer.
A "list" is now a pointer to a structure containing some meta-data
about the list; the head and tail pointers in that structure refer
to ListCell structures that maintain the actual linked list of nodes.
The function names of the list API have also been changed to, I hope,
be more logically consistent. By default, the old function names are
still available; they will be disabled-by-default once the rest of
the tree has been updated to use the new API names.

of which redundant clause to remove, it removes the more expensive one.
In simple scenarios the clauses will be like 'var = var' and there's
no difference, but we are now capable of considering cases where there
are sub-selects in the clauses, and it makes a BIG difference.

with index qual clauses in the Path representation. This saves a little
work during createplan and (probably more importantly) allows reuse of
cached selectivity estimates during indexscan planning. Also fix latent
bug: wrong plan would have been generated for a 'special operator' used
in a nestloop-inner-indexscan join qual, because the special operator
would not have gotten into the list of quals to recheck. This bug is
only latent because at present the special-operator code could never
trigger on a join qual, but sooner or later someone will want to do it.

teaching the latter to accept either RestrictInfo nodes or bare
clause expressions; and cache the selectivity result in the RestrictInfo
node when possible. This extends the caching behavior of approx_selectivity
to many more contexts, and should reduce duplicate selectivity

first time generate an OR indexscan for a two-column index when the WHERE
condition is like 'col1 = foo AND (col2 = bar OR col2 = baz)' --- before,
the OR had to be on the first column of the index or we'd not notice the
possibility of using it. Some progress towards extracting OR indexscans
from subclauses of an OR that references multiple relations, too, although
this code is #ifdef'd out because it needs more work.

fields: now they are valid whenever the clause is a binary opclause,
not only when it is a potential join clause (there is a new boolean
field canjoin to signal the latter condition). This lets us avoid
recomputing the relid sets over and over while examining indexes.
Still more work to do to make this as useful as it could be, because
there are places that could use the info but don't have access to the
RestrictInfo node.

some cases of redundant clauses that were formerly not caught. We have

of known-equal expressions includes any constant expressions (including
Params from outer queries), we actively suppress any 'var = var'
clauses that are or could be deduced from the set, generating only the
deducible 'var = const' clauses instead. The idea here is to push down
the restrictions implied by the equality set to base relations whenever
possible. Once we have applied the 'var = const' clauses, the 'var = var'
clauses are redundant, and should be suppressed both to save work at
execution and to avoid double-counting restrictivity.
