This commit fixes psql, pg_dump, and the information schema to be
consistent with the backend changes which I made as part of commit
be90032e0d1cf473bdd99aee94218218f59f29f1, and also includes a
related documentation tweak.
Shigeru Hanada, with slight adjustment.

Failure to distinguish these cases is the real cause behind the recent
reports of Windows builds crashing on 'infinity'::timestamp, which was
directly due to failure to establish a value of timezone_abbreviations
in postmaster child processes. The postmaster had the desired value,
but write_one_nondefault_variable() didn't transmit it to backends.
To fix that, invent a new value PGC_S_DYNAMIC_DEFAULT, and be sure to use
that or PGC_S_ENV_VAR (as appropriate) for "default" settings that are
computed during initialization. (We need both because there's at least
one variable that could receive a value from either source.)
This commit also fixes ProcessConfigFile's failure to restore the correct
default value for certain GUC variables if they are set in postgresql.conf
and then removed/commented out of the file. We have to recompute and
reinstall the value for any GUC variable that could have received a value
from PGC_S_DYNAMIC_DEFAULT or PGC_S_ENV_VAR sources, and there were a
number of oversights. (That whole thing is a crock that needs to be
redesigned, but not today.)
However, I intentionally didn't make it work "exactly right" for the cases
of timezone and log_timezone. The exactly right behavior would involve
running select_default_timezone, which we'd have to do independently in
each postgres process, causing the whole database to become entirely
unresponsive for as much as several seconds. That didn't seem like a good
idea, especially since the variable's removal from postgresql.conf might be
just an accidental edit. Instead the behavior is to adopt the previously
active setting as if it were default.
Note that this patch creates an ABI break for extensions that use any of
the PGC_S_XXX constants; they'll need to be recompiled.

Use ColLabel in place of ColId, so that reserved words are accepted as if
they were not reserved. Also, remove BCONST and XCONST, which were never
documented as allowed. Allowing those exposes to users an implementation
detail, namely the format in which the lexer outputs such constants, that
seems unwise to expose.
No documentation change needed, since this just makes the code act more
like you'd expect from reading the CREATE TRIGGER man page.
Per complaint from Szymon Guz and subsequent discussion.

Normally nel == 0 works okay because the initial value of "last" will be
less than "base"; but if "base" is zero then the calculation wraps around
and we have a very large (unsigned) value for "last", so that the loop can
be entered and we get a SIGSEGV on a bogus pointer.
This is certainly the proximate cause of the recent reports of Windows
builds crashing on 'infinity'::timestamp --- evidently, they're either not
setting an active timezonetktbl, or setting an empty one. It's not yet
clear to me why it's only happening on Windows and not happening on any
buildfarm member. But even if that's due to some bug elsewhere, it seems
wise for this function to not choke on the powerup values of
timezonetktbl/sztimezonetktbl.
I also changed the copy of this code in ecpglib, although I am not sure
whether it's exposed to a similar hazard.
Per report and stack trace from Richard Broersma.

The recent cleanup of GUC assign hooks got rid of the kludge of using
"unknown" as a magic value for timezone and log_timezone. But I forgot
to update the documentation to match, as noted by Martin Pitt.

The SSI patch inserted a call of RegisterPredicateLockingXid into
GetNewTransactionId, which was a bad idea on a couple of grounds. First,
it's not necessary to hold XidGenLock while manipulating that shared
memory, and doing so is bad because XidGenLock is a high-contention lock
that should be held for as short a time as possible. (Not to mention that
it adds an entirely unnecessary deadlock hazard, since we must take
SerializableXactHashLock as well.) Second, the specific place where it was
put was between extending CLOG and advancing nextXid, which could result in
unpleasant behavior in case of a failure there. Pull the call out to
AssignTransactionId, which is much safer and arguably better from a
modularity standpoint too.
There is more work to do to clean up the failure-before-advancing-nextXid
issue, but that is a separate change that will need to be back-patched.
So for the moment I just want to make GetNewTransactionId look the same as
it did in prior versions.

These were labeled with precedences just to avoid attaching explicit
precedences to the productions in which they were the last terminal symbol.
Since a terminal symbol precedence marking can affect many other things
too, it seems like better practice to attach precedence labels to the
productions, and not mark the terminal symbols.
Ideally we'd also remove the precedence attached to NULL_P, but it turns
out that we are actually depending on that having a precedence higher than
POSTFIXOP, else we get a shift/reduce conflict for postfix operators in
b_expr. (Which more or less proves my point about these markings having a
high risk of unexpected consequences.) For the moment, move NULL_P into
the set of keywords grouped with IDENT, so that at least it will act
similarly to non-keywords; and document the interaction.

After finding an EXISTS or ANY sub-select that can be converted to a
semi-join or anti-join, we should recurse into the body of the sub-select.
This allows cases such as EXISTS-within-EXISTS to be optimized properly.
The original coding would leave the lower sub-select as a SubLink, which
is no better and often worse than what we can do with a join. Per example
from Wayne Conrad.
Back-patch to 8.4. There is a related issue in older versions' handling
of pull_up_IN_clauses, but they're lame enough anyway about the whole area
that it seems not worth the extra work to try to fix.

The previous coding would allow requests up to half of maxBlockSize to be
treated as "chunks", but when that actually did happen, we'd waste nearly
half of the space in the malloc block containing the chunk, if no smaller
requests came along to fill it. Avoid this scenario by limiting the
maximum size of a chunk to 1/8th maxBlockSize, so that we can waste no more
than 1/8th of the allocated space. This will not change the behavior at
all for the default context size parameters (with large maxBlockSize),
but it will change the behavior when using ALLOCSET_SMALL_MAXSIZE.
In particular, there's no longer a need for spell.c to be overly concerned
about the request size parameters it uses, so remove a rather unhelpful
comment about that.

We must lock out autovacuuming of the old toast table before computing the
OldestXmin horizon we will use. Otherwise, autovacuum could start on the
toast table later, compute a later OldestXmin horizon, and remove as DEAD
toast tuples that we still need (because we think their parent tuples are
only RECENTLY_DEAD). Per further thought about bug #5998.

VACUUM was willing to remove a committed-dead tuple immediately if it was
deleted by the same transaction that inserted it. The idea is that such a
tuple could never have been visible to any other transaction, so we don't
need to keep it around to satisfy MVCC snapshots. However, there was
already an exception for tuples that are part of an update chain, and this
exception created a problem: we might remove TOAST tuples (which are never
part of an update chain) while their parent tuple stayed around (if it was
part of an update chain). This didn't pose a problem for most things,
since the parent tuple is indeed dead: no snapshot will ever consider it
visible. But MVCC-safe CLUSTER had a problem, since it will try to copy
RECENTLY_DEAD tuples to the new table. It then has to copy their TOAST
data too, and would fail if VACUUM had already removed the toast tuples.
Easiest fix is to get rid of the special case for xmin == xmax. This may
delay reclaiming dead space for a little bit in some cases, but it's by far
the most reliable way to fix the issue.
Per bug #5998 from Mark Reid. Back-patch to 8.3, which is the oldest
version with MVCC-safe CLUSTER.

Convert it to use successive shifts right instead of increasing a divisor.
This is probably a tad more efficient than the original coding, and it's
nicer-looking than the previous patch because we don't need a special case
to avoid overflow in the last branch. But the real reason to do it is to
avoid a Solaris compiler bug, as per results from buildfarm member moa.

printf type functions.
The style is set to "printf" for backwards compatibility everywhere except
on Windows, where it is set to "gnu_printf", which eliminates hundreds of
false error messages from modern versions of gcc arising from %m and %ll{d,u}
formats.

Per recent discussion, it's important for all computed datums (not only the
results of input functions) to not contain any ill-defined (uninitialized)
bits. Failing to ensure that can result in equal() reporting that
semantically indistinguishable Consts are not equal, which in turn leads to
bizarre and undesirable planner behavior, such as in a recent example from
David Johnston. We might eventually try to fix this in a general manner by
allowing datatypes to define identity-testing functions, but for now the
path of least resistance is to expect datatypes to force all unused bits
into consistent states.
Per some testing by Noah Misch, array and path functions seem to be the
only ones presenting risks at the moment, so I looked through all the
functions in adt/array*.c and geo_ops.c and fixed them as necessary. In
the array functions, the easiest/safest fix is to allocate result arrays
with palloc0 instead of palloc. Possibly in future someone will want to
look into whether we can just zero the padding bytes, but that looks too
complex for a back-patchable fix. In the path functions, we already had a
precedent in path_in for just zeroing the one known pad field, so duplicate
that code as needed.
Back-patch to all supported branches.

In a couple of places we said "not supported on this platform" for cases
that aren't really platform-specific, but could depend on configuration
options such as --with-openssl. Use "not supported by this build" instead,
as that doesn't convey the impression that you can't fix it without moving
to another OS; that's also more consistent with the wording used for an
identical error case in guc.c.
No back-patch, as the clarity gain is small enough to not be worth
burdening translators with back-branch changes.

Most commenters agreed that this is more friendly than silently failing
to match the line during actual connection attempts. Also, this will
prevent corner cases that might arise when trying to handle such a line
when the SSL code isn't turned on. An example is that specifying
clientcert=1 in such a line would formerly result in a completely
misleading complaint that root.crt wasn't present, as seen in a recent
report from Marc-Andre Laverdiere. While we could have instead fixed
that specific behavior, it seems likely that we'd have a continuing stream
of such bizarre behaviors if we keep on allowing hostssl lines when SSL is
disabled.
Back-patch to 8.4, where clientcert was introduced. Earlier versions don't
have this specific issue, and the code is enough different to make this
patch not applicable without more work than it seems worth.

Per discussion, removing the hint seems better than correcting it because
the adjacent analogous cases in RenameRelation don't have any hints, and
nobody seems to have missed 'em.

Per bug #5988, reported by Marko Tiikkaja, and further analyzed by Tom
Lane, the previous coding was broken in several respects: even if the
target table already existed, a subsequent CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS
might try to add additional constraints or sequences-for-serial
specified in the new CREATE TABLE statement.
In passing, this also fixes a minor information leak: it's no longer
possible to figure out whether a schema to which you don't have CREATE
access contains a sequence named like "x_y_seq" by attempting to create a
table in that schema called "x" with a serial column called "y".
Some more refactoring of this code in the future might be warranted,
but that will need to wait for a later major release.

Instead, foreign tables are treated just like views: permissions can
be granted using GRANT privilege ON [TABLE] foreign_table_name TO role,
and revoked similarly. GRANT/REVOKE .. FOREIGN TABLE is no longer
supported, just as we don't support GRANT/REVOKE .. VIEW. The set of
accepted permissions for foreign tables is now identical to the set for
regular tables, and views.

The expression that tried to round the value to the nearest TB could
overflow, leading to bogus output as reported in bug #5993 from Nicola
Cossu. This isn't likely to ever happen in the intended usage of the
function (if it could, we'd be needing to use a wider datatype instead);
but it's not hard to give the expected output, so let's do so.

This option turns off autovacuum, prevents non-super-user connections,
and enables oid setting hooks in the backend. The code continues to use
the old autoavacuum disable settings for servers with earlier catalog
versions.
This includes a catalog version bump to identify servers that support
the -b option.

The previous coding failed to account properly for the costs of evaluating
the input expressions of aggregates and window functions, as seen in a
recent gripe from Claudio Freire. (I said at the time that it wasn't
counting these costs at all; but on closer inspection, it was effectively
charging these costs once per output tuple. That is completely wrong for
aggregates, and not exactly right for window functions either.)
There was also a hard-wired assumption that aggregates and window functions
had procost 1.0, which is now fixed to respect the actual cataloged costs.
The costing of WindowAgg is still pretty bogus, since it doesn't try to
estimate the effects of spilling data to disk, but that seems like a
separate issue.

Most of these cast DWORD to int or unsigned int for printf type handling.
This is safe even on 64 bit architectures because a DWORD is always 32 bits.
In one case a variable is initialised to keep the compiler happy.

These functions should take a pg_locale_t, not a collation OID, and should
call mbstowcs_l/wcstombs_l where available. Where those functions are not
available, temporarily select the correct locale with uselocale().
This change removes the bogus assumption that all locales selectable in
a given database have the same wide-character conversion method; in
particular, the collate.linux.utf8 regression test now passes with
LC_CTYPE=C, so long as the database encoding is UTF8.
I decided to move the char2wchar/wchar2char functions out of mbutils.c and
into pg_locale.c, because they work on wchar_t not pg_wchar_t and thus
don't really belong with the mbutils.c functions. Keeping them where they
were would have required importing pg_locale_t into pg_wchar.h somehow,
which did not seem like a good plan.

Experimentation with contrib/btree_gist shows that the majority of the GIST
support functions potentially need collation information. Safest policy
seems to be to pass it to all of them, instead of making assumptions about
which ones could possibly need it.

This syntax allows a standalone table to be made into a typed table,
or a typed table to be made standalone. This is possibly a mildly
useful feature in its own right, but the real motivation for this
change is that we need it to make pg_upgrade work with typed tables.
This doesn't actually fix that problem, but it's necessary
infrastructure.

If we find a DELETE_IN_PROGRESS HOT-updated tuple, it is impossible to know
whether to index it or not except by waiting to see if the deleting
transaction commits. If it doesn't, the tuple might again be LIVE, meaning
we have to index it. So wait and recheck in that case.
Also, we must not rely on ii_BrokenHotChain to decide that it's possible to
omit tuples from the index. That could result in omitting tuples that we
need, particularly in view of yesterday's fixes to not necessarily set
indcheckxmin (but it's broken even without that, as per my analysis today).
Since this is just an extremely marginal performance optimization, dropping
the test shouldn't hurt.
These cases are only expected to happen in system catalogs (they're
possible there due to early release of RowExclusiveLock in most
catalog-update code paths). Since reindexing of a system catalog isn't a
particularly performance-critical operation anyway, there's no real need to
be concerned about possible performance degradation from these changes.
The worst aspects of this bug were introduced in 9.0 --- 8.x will always
wait out a DELETE_IN_PROGRESS tuple. But I think dropping index entries
on the strength of ii_BrokenHotChain is dangerous even without that, so
back-patch removal of that optimization to 8.3 and 8.4.

Per comment from Greg Stark, it's less clear that HOT chains don't conflict
with the index than it would be for a valid index. So, let's preserve the
former behavior that indcheckxmin does get set when there are
potentially-broken HOT chains in this case. This change does not cause any
pg_index update that wouldn't have happened anyway, so we're not
re-introducing the previous bug with pg_index updates, and surely the case
is not significant from a performance standpoint; so let's be as
conservative as possible.
