Stress testing by Andreas Seltenreich disclosed longstanding problems that
occur if a FATAL exit (e.g. due to receipt of SIGTERM) occurs while we are
trying to execute a ROLLBACK of an already-failed transaction. In such a
case, xact.c is in TBLOCK_ABORT state, so that AbortOutOfAnyTransaction
would skip AbortTransaction and go straight to CleanupTransaction. This
led to an assert failure in an assert-enabled build (due to the ROLLBACK's
portal still having a cleanup hook) or without assertions, to a FATAL exit
complaining about "cannot drop active portal". The latter's not
disastrous, perhaps, but it's messy enough to want to improve it.
We don't really want to run all of AbortTransaction in this code path.
The minimum required to clean up the open portal safely is to do
AtAbort_Memory and AtAbort_Portals. It seems like a good idea to
do AtAbort_Memory unconditionally, to be entirely sure that we are
starting with a safe CurrentMemoryContext. That means that if the
main loop in AbortOutOfAnyTransaction does nothing, we need an extra
step at the bottom to restore CurrentMemoryContext = TopMemoryContext,
which I chose to do by invoking AtCleanup_Memory. This'll result in
calling AtCleanup_Memory twice in many of the paths through this function,
but that seems harmless and reasonably inexpensive.
The original motivation for the assertion in AtCleanup_Portals was that
we wanted to be sure that any user-defined code executed as a consequence
of the cleanup hook runs during AbortTransaction not CleanupTransaction.
That still seems like a valid concern, and now that we've seen one case
of the assertion firing --- which means that exactly that would have
happened in a production build --- let's replace the Assert with a runtime
check. If we see the cleanup hook still set, we'll emit a WARNING and
just drop the hook unexecuted.
This has been like this a long time, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

The sole useful effect of this function, to check that no catcache
entries have positive refcounts at transaction end, has really been
obsolete since we introduced ResourceOwners in PG 8.1. We reduced the
checks to assertions years ago, so that the function was a complete
no-op in production builds. There have been previous discussions about
removing it entirely, but consensus up to now was that it had some small
value as a cross-check for bugs in the ResourceOwner logic.
However, it now emerges that it's possible to trigger these assertions
if you hit an assert-enabled backend with SIGTERM during a call to
SearchCatCacheList, because that function temporarily increases the
refcounts of entries it's intending to add to a catcache list construct.
In a normal ERROR scenario, the extra refcounts are cleaned up by
SearchCatCacheList's PG_CATCH block; but in a FATAL exit we do a
transaction abort and exit without ever executing PG_CATCH handlers.
There's a case to be made that this is a generic hazard and we should
consider restructuring elog(FATAL) handling so that pending PG_CATCH
handlers do get run. That's pretty scary though: it could easily create
more problems than it solves. Preliminary stress testing by Andreas
Seltenreich suggests that there are not many live problems of this ilk,
so we rejected that idea.
There are more-localized ways to fix the problem; the most principled
one would be to use PG_ENSURE_ERROR_CLEANUP instead of plain PG_TRY.
But adding cycles to SearchCatCacheList isn't very appealing. We could
also weaken the assertions in AtEOXact_CatCache in some more or less
ad-hoc way, but that just makes its raison d'etre even less compelling.
In the end, the most reasonable solution seems to be to just remove
AtEOXact_CatCache altogether, on the grounds that it's not worth trying
to fix it. It hasn't found any bugs for us in many years.
Per report from Jeevan Chalke. Back-patch to all supported branches.

find_composite_type_dependencies correctly found columns that are of
the specified type, and columns that are of arrays of that type, but
not columns that are domains or ranges over the given type, its array
type, etc. The most general way to handle this seems to be to assume
that any type that is directly dependent on the specified type can be
treated as a container type, and processed recursively (allowing us
to handle nested cases such as ranges over domains over arrays ...).
Since a type's array type already has such a dependency, we can drop
the existing special case for the array type.
The very similar logic in get_rels_with_domain was likewise a few
bricks shy of a load, as it supposed that a directly dependent type
could *only* be a sub-domain. This is already wrong for ranges over
domains, and it'll someday be wrong for arrays over domains.
Add test cases illustrating the problems, and back-patch to all
supported branches.

Commit 1efc7e538 did a poor job of emulating existing logic for touching
Datums that might be expanded-object pointers. It didn't check for typlen
being -1 first, which meant it could crash on fixed-length pass-by-ref
values, and probably on cstring values as well. It also didn't use
DatumGetPointer before VARATT_IS_EXTERNAL_EXPANDED, which while currently
harmless is not according to documentation nor prevailing style.
I also think the lack of any explanation as to why datumSerialize makes
these particular nonobvious choices is pretty awful, so fix that.

Commit 3eefc51053f250837c3115c12f8119d16881a2d7 claimed to make
pg_user_mappings enforce the qualifications user_mapping_options had
been enforcing, but its removal of a longstanding restriction left them
distinct when the current user is the subject of a mapping yet has no
server privileges. user_mapping_options emits no rows for such a
mapping, but pg_user_mappings includes full umoptions. Change
pg_user_mappings to show null for umoptions. Back-patch to 9.2, like
the above commit.

Some authentication methods allowed it, others did not. In the client-side,
libpq does not even try to authenticate with an empty password, which makes
using empty passwords hazardous: an administrator might think that an
account with an empty password cannot be used to log in, because psql
doesn't allow it, and not realize that a different client would in fact
allow it. To clear that confusion and to be be consistent, disallow empty
passwords in all authentication methods.
All the authentication methods that used plaintext authentication over the
wire, except for BSD authentication, already checked that the password
received from the user was not empty. To avoid forgetting it in the future
again, move the check to the recv_password_packet function. That only
forbids using an empty password with plaintext authentication, however.
MD5 and SCRAM need a different fix:
* In stable branches, check that the MD5 hash stored for the user does not
not correspond to an empty string. This adds some overhead to MD5
authentication, because the server needs to compute an extra MD5 hash, but
it is not noticeable in practice.
* In HEAD, modify CREATE and ALTER ROLE to clear the password if an empty
string, or a password hash that corresponds to an empty string, is
specified. The user-visible behavior is the same as in the stable branches,
the user cannot log in, but it seems better to stop the empty password from
entering the system in the first place. Secondly, it is fairly expensive to
check that a SCRAM hash doesn't correspond to an empty string, because
computing a SCRAM hash is much more expensive than an MD5 hash by design,
so better avoid doing that on every authentication.
We could clear the password on CREATE/ALTER ROLE also in stable branches,
but we would still need to check at authentication time, because even if we
prevent empty passwords from being stored in pg_authid, there might be
existing ones there already.

The callers for GetOldestSafeDecodingTransactionId() all inverted the
argument for the argument introduced in 2bef06d516460. Luckily this
appears to be inconsequential for the moment, as we wait for
concurrent in-progress transaction when assembling a
snapshot. Additionally this could only make a difference when adding a
second logical slot, because only a pre-existing slot could cause an
issue by lowering the returned xid dangerously much.

We don't actually support session tickets, since we do not create an SSL
session identifier. But it seems that OpenSSL will issue a session ticket
on-demand anyway, which will then fail when used. This results in
reconnection failures when using ticket-aware client-side SSL libraries
(such as the Npgsql .NET driver), as reported by Shay Rojansky.
To fix, just tell OpenSSL not to issue tickets. At some point in the
far future, we might consider enabling tickets instead. But the security
implications of that aren't entirely clear; and besides it would have
little benefit except for very short-lived database connections, which is
Something We're Bad At anyhow. It would take a lot of other work to get
to a point where that would really be an exciting thing to do.
While at it, also tell OpenSSL not to use a session cache. This doesn't
really do anything, since a backend would never populate the cache anyway,
but it might gain some micro-efficiencies and/or reduce security
exposures.
Patch by me, per discussion with Heikki Linnakangas and Shay Rojansky.

init_htab(), with #define HASH_DEBUG, prints a bunch of hashtable
parameters. It used to also print nentries, but commit 44ca4022f changed
that to "hash_get_num_entries(hctl)", which is wrong (the parameter should
be "hashp").
Rather than correct the coding, though, let's just remove that field from
the printout. The table must be empty, since we just finished building
it, so expensively calculating the number of entries is rather pointless.
Moreover hash_get_num_entries makes assumptions (about not needing locks)
which we could do without in debugging code.

If several sessions are concurrently locking a tuple update chain with
nonconflicting lock modes using an old snapshot, and they all succeed,
it may happen that some of them fail because of restarting the loop (due
to a concurrent Xmax change) and getting an error in the subsequent pass
while trying to obtain a tuple lock that they already have in some tuple
version.
This can only happen with very high concurrency (where a row is being
both updated and FK-checked by multiple transactions concurrently), but
it's been observed in the field and can have unpleasant consequences
such as an FK check failing to see a tuple that definitely exists:
ERROR: insert or update on table "child_table" violates foreign key constraint "fk_constraint_name"
DETAIL: Key (keyid)=(123456) is not present in table "parent_table".
(where the key is observably present in the table).

Trading a little too heavily on letting the code path be the same whether
we were creating shared data structures or only attaching to them,
InitPredicateLocks() inserted the "scratch" PredicateLockTargetHash entry
unconditionally. This is just wrong if we're in a postmaster child,
which would only reach this code in EXEC_BACKEND builds. Most of the
time, the hash_search(HASH_ENTER) call would simply report that the
entry already existed, causing no visible effect since the code did not
bother to check for that possibility. However, if this happened while
some other backend had transiently removed the "scratch" entry, then
that other backend's eventual RestoreScratchTarget would suffer an
assert failure; this appears to be the explanation for a recent failure
on buildfarm member culicidae. In non-assert builds, there would be
no visible consequences there either. But nonetheless this is a pretty
bad bug for EXEC_BACKEND builds, for two reasons:
1. Each new backend would perform the hash_search(HASH_ENTER) call
without holding any lock that would prevent concurrent access to the
PredicateLockTargetHash hash table. This creates a low but certainly
nonzero risk of corruption of that hash table.
2. In the event that the race condition occurred, by reinserting the
scratch entry too soon, we were defeating the entire purpose of the
scratch entry, namely to guarantee that transaction commit could move
hash table entries around with no risk of out-of-memory failure.
The odds of an actual OOM failure are quite low, but not zero, and if
it did happen it would again result in corruption of the hash table.
The user-visible symptoms of such corruption are a little hard to predict,
but would presumably amount to misbehavior of SERIALIZABLE transactions
that'd require a crash or postmaster restart to fix.
To fix, just skip the hash insertion if IsUnderPostmaster. I also
inserted a bunch of assertions that the expected things happen
depending on whether IsUnderPostmaster is true. That might be overkill,
since most comparable code in other functions isn't quite that paranoid,
but once burnt twice shy.
In passing, also move a couple of lines to places where they seemed
to make more sense.

If the user modifies a view that has CHECK OPTIONs and this gets
translated into a modification to an underlying relation which happens
to be a foreign table, the check options should be enforced. In the
normal code path, that was happening properly, but it was not working
properly for "direct" modification because the whole operation gets
pushed to the remote side in that case and we never have an option to
enforce the constraint against individual tuples. Fix by disabling
direct modification when there is a need to enforce CHECK OPTIONs.

Various cases involving renaming of view columns are handled by having
make_viewdef pass down the view's current relation tupledesc to
get_query_def, which then takes care to use the column names from the
tupledesc for the output column names of the SELECT. For some reason
though, we'd missed teaching make_ruledef to do similarly when it is
printing an ON SELECT rule, even though this is exactly the same case.
The results from pg_get_ruledef would then be different and arguably wrong.
In particular, this breaks pre-v10 versions of pg_dump, which in some
situations would define views by means of emitting a CREATE RULE ... ON
SELECT command. Third-party tools might not be happy either.
In passing, clean up some crufty code in make_viewdef; we'd apparently
modernized the equivalent code in make_ruledef somewhere along the way,
and missed this copy.

Normally, a JoinExpr would have empty "quals" only if it came from CROSS
JOIN syntax. However, it's possible to get to this state by specifying
NATURAL JOIN between two tables with no common column names, and there
might be other ways too. The code previously printed no ON clause if
"quals" was empty; that's right for CROSS JOIN but syntactically invalid
if it's some type of outer join. Fix by printing ON TRUE in that case.
This got broken by commit 2ffa740be, which stopped using NATURAL JOIN
syntax in ruleutils output due to its brittleness in the face of
column renamings. Back-patch to 9.3 where that commit appeared.

The grammar will only accept something syntactically similar to a function
call in a function-in-FROM expression. However, there are various ways
to input something that ruleutils.c won't deparse that way, potentially
leading to a view or rule that fails dump/reload. Fix by inserting a
dummy CAST around anything that isn't going to deparse as a function
(which is one of the ways to get something like that in there in the
first place).
In HEAD, also make use of the infrastructure added by this to avoid
emitting unnecessary parentheses in CREATE INDEX deparsing. I did
not change that in back branches, thinking that people might find it
to be unexpected/unnecessary behavioral change.
In HEAD, also fix incorrect logic for when to add extra parens to
partition key expressions. Somebody apparently thought they could
get away with simpler logic than pg_get_indexdef_worker has, but
they were wrong --- a counterexample is PARTITION BY LIST ((a[1])).
Ignoring the prettyprint flag for partition expressions isn't exactly
a nice solution anyway.
This has been broken all along, so back-patch to all supported branches.

The race condition goes like this:
1. GetNewTransactionId advances nextXid e.g. from 100 to 101
2. GetOldestActiveTransactionId reads the new nextXid, 101
3. GetOldestActiveTransactionId loops through the proc array. There are no
active XIDs there, so it returns 101 as the oldest active XID.
4. GetNewTransactionid stores XID 100 to MyPgXact->xid
So, GetOldestActiveTransactionId returned XID 101, even though 100 only
just started and is surely still running.
This would be hard to hit in practice, and even harder to spot any ill
effect if it happens. GetOldestActiveTransactionId is only used when
creating a checkpoint in a master server, and the race condition can only
happen on an online checkpoint, as there are no backends running during a
shutdown checkpoint. The oldestActiveXid value of an online checkpoint is
only used when starting up a hot standby server, to determine the starting
point where pg_subtrans is initialized from. For the race condition to
happen, there must be no other XIDs in the proc array that would hold back
the oldest-active XID value, which means that the missed XID must be a top
transaction's XID. However, pg_subtrans is not used for top XIDs, so I
believe an off-by-one error is in fact inconsequential. Nevertheless, let's
fix it, as it's clearly wrong and the fix is simple.
This has been wrong ever since hot standby was introduced, so backport to
all supported versions.

Further investigation shows that ruleutils isn't quite up to speed either
for cases where we have a domain-over-array: it needs to be prepared to
look past a CoerceToDomain at the top level of field and element
assignments, else it decompiles them incorrectly. Potentially this would
result in failure to dump/reload a rule, if it looked like the one in the
new test case. (I also added a test for EXPLAIN; that output isn't broken,
but clearly we need more test coverage here.)
Like commit b1cb32fb6, this bug is reachable in cases we already support,
so back-patch all the way.

compute_tsvector_stats() detoasted and kept in memory every tsvector value
in the sample, but that can be a lot of memory. The original bug report
described a case using over 10 gigabytes, with statistics target of 10000
(the maximum).
To fix, allocate a separate copy of just the lexemes that we keep around,
and free the detoasted tsvector values as we go. This adds some palloc/pfree
overhead, when you have a lot of distinct lexemes in the sample, but it's
better than running out of memory.

Commit 14e8803f1 removed the locking in SyncRepWaitForLSN, but that
introduced a race condition, where SyncRepWaitForLSN might see
syncRepState already set to SYNC_REP_WAIT_COMPLETE, but the process was
not yet removed from the queue. That tripped the assertion, that the
process should no longer be in the uqeue. Reorder the operations in
SyncRepWakeQueue to remove the process from the queue first, and update
syncRepState only after that, and add a memory barrier in between to make
sure the operations are made visible to other processes in that order.
Fixes bug #14721 reported by Const Zhang. Analysis and fix by Thomas Munro.
Backpatch down to 9.5, where the locking was removed.

We allow INSERT and UPDATE commands to assign to the same column more than
once, as long as the assignments are to subfields or elements rather than
the whole column. However, this failed when the target column was a domain
over array rather than plain array. Fix by teaching process_matched_tle()
to look through CoerceToDomain nodes, and add relevant test cases.
Also add a group of test cases exercising domains over array of composite.
It's doubtless accidental that CREATE DOMAIN allows this case while not
allowing straight domain over composite; but it does, so we'd better make
sure we don't break it. (I could not find any documentation mentioning
either side of that, so no doc changes.)
It's been like this for a long time, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

We've heard occasional reports of backend launch failing because
pgwin32_ReserveSharedMemoryRegion() fails, indicating that something
has already used that address space in the child process. It's not
very clear what, given that we disable ASLR in Windows builds, but
suspicion falls on antivirus products. It'd be better if we didn't
have to disable ASLR, anyway. So let's try to ameliorate the problem
by retrying the process launch after such a failure, up to 100 times.
Patch by me, based on previous work by Amit Kapila and others.
This is a longstanding issue, so back-patch to all supported branches.

It's possible for WalSndWaitForWal to be asked to wait for WAL that doesn't
exist yet. That's fine, in fact it's the normal situation if we're caught
up; but when the client requests shutdown we should not keep waiting.
The previous coding could wait indefinitely if the source server was idle.
In passing, improve the rather weak comments in this area, and slightly
rearrange some related code for better readability.
Back-patch to 9.4 where this code was introduced.

Buildfarm evidence shows that TCP_KEEPALIVE_THRESHOLD doesn't exist
after all on Solaris < 11. This means we need to take positive action to
prevent the TCP_KEEPALIVE code path from being taken on that platform.
I've chosen to limit it with "&& defined(__darwin__)", since it's unclear
that anyone else would follow Apple's precedent of spelling the symbol
that way.
Also, follow a suggestion from Michael Paquier of eliminating code
duplication by defining a couple of intermediate symbols for the
socket option.
In passing, make some effort to reduce the number of translatable messages
by replacing "setsockopt(foo) failed" with "setsockopt(%s) failed", etc,
throughout the affected files. And update relevant documentation so
that it doesn't claim to provide an exhaustive list of the possible
socket option names.
Like the previous commit (f0256c774), back-patch to all supported branches.

Turns out that the socket option for this is named TCP_KEEPALIVE_THRESHOLD,
at least according to the tcp(7P) man page for Solaris 11. (But since that
text refers to "SunOS", it's likely pretty ancient.) It appears that the
symbol TCP_KEEPALIVE does get defined on that platform, but it doesn't
seem to represent a valid protocol-level socket option. This leads to
bleats in the postmaster log, and no tcp_keepalives_idle functionality.
Per bug #14720 from Andrey Lizenko, as well as an earlier report from
Dhiraj Chawla that nobody had followed up on. The issue's been there
since we added the TCP_KEEPALIVE code path in commit 5acd417c8, so
back-patch to all supported branches.

check_agg_arguments_walker threw an error upon seeing a SRF or window
function, but that is too aggressive: if the function is within a
sub-select then it's perfectly fine. I broke the SRF case in commit
0436f6bde by copying the logic for window functions ... but that was
broken too, and had been since commit eaccfded9.
Repair both cases in HEAD, and the window function case back to 9.3.
9.2 gets this right.

When a walreceiver dies, the startup process will notice that and send
a PMSIGNAL_START_WALRECEIVER signal to the postmaster, asking for a new
walreceiver to be launched. There's a race condition, which at least
in HEAD is very easy to hit, whereby the postmaster might see that
signal before it processes the SIGCHLD from the walreceiver process.
In that situation, sigusr1_handler() just dropped the start request
on the floor, reasoning that it must be redundant. Eventually, after
10 seconds (WALRCV_STARTUP_TIMEOUT), the startup process would make a
fresh request --- but that's a long time if the connection could have
been re-established almost immediately.
Fix it by setting a state flag inside the postmaster that we won't
clear until we do launch a walreceiver. In cases where that results
in an extra walreceiver launch, it's up to the walreceiver to realize
it's unwanted and go away --- but we have, and need, that logic anyway
for the opposite race case.
I came across this through investigating unexpected delays in the
src/test/recovery TAP tests: it manifests there in test cases where
a master server is stopped and restarted while leaving streaming
slaves active.
This logic has been broken all along, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

The stats collector disregards inquiry messages that bear a cutoff_time
before when it last wrote the relevant stats file. That's fine, but at
startup when it reads the "permanent" stats files, it absorbed their
timestamps as if they were the times at which the corresponding temporary
stats files had been written. In reality, of course, there's no data
out there at all. This led to disregarding inquiry messages soon after
startup if the postmaster had been shut down and restarted within less
than PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL; which is a pretty common scenario, both for
testing and in the field. Requesting backends would hang for 10 seconds
and then report failure to read statistics, unless they got bailed out
by some other backend coming along and making a newer request within
that interval.
I came across this through investigating unexpected delays in the
src/test/recovery TAP tests: it manifests there because the autovacuum
launcher hangs for 10 seconds when it can't get statistics at startup,
thus preventing a second shutdown from occurring promptly. We might
want to do some things in the autovac code to make it less prone to
getting stuck that way, but this change is a good bug fix regardless.
In passing, also fix pgstat_read_statsfiles() to ensure that it
re-zeroes its global stats variables if they are corrupted by a
short read from the stats file. (Other reads in that function
go into temp variables, so that the issue doesn't arise.)
This has been broken since we created the separation between permanent
and temporary stats files in 8.4, so back-patch to all supported branches.

Fix its header comment, which described the old behavior of the <N>
phrase distance operator; we missed updating that in commit 028350f61.
Also, reset errno before strtol() call, to defend against the possibility
that it was already ERANGE at entry. (The lack of complaints says that
it generally isn't, but this is at least a latent bug.) Very minor
stylistic improvements as well.
Victor Drobny noted the obsolete comment, I noted the errno issue.
Back-patch to 9.6 where this code was added, just in case the errno
issue is a live bug in some cases.

When promoting a standby just after a XLOG_SWITCH record was replayed,
and next segment(s) are already are locally available (via walsender,
restore_command + trigger/recovery target), that segment could
accidentally be recycled onto the past of the new timeline. Later
checkpointer would create a .ready file for it, assuming there was an
error during creation, and it would get archived. That causes trouble
if another standby is later brought up from a basebackup from before
the timeline creation, because it would try to read the
segment, because XLogFileReadAnyTLI just tries all possible timelines,
which doesn't have valid contents. Thus replay would fail.
The problem, if already occurred, can be fixed by removing the segment
and/or having restore_command filter it out.
The reason for the creation of such "phantom" segments was, that after
an XLOG_SWITCH record the EndOfLog variable points to the beginning of
the next segment, and RemoveXlogFile() used XLByteToPrevSeg().
Normally RemoveXlogFile() doing so is harmless, because the last
segment will still exist preventing InstallXLogFileSegment() from
causing harm, but just after promotion there's no previous segment on
the new timeline.
Fix that by using XLByteToSeg() instead of XLByteToPrevSeg().

David Rowley found that the "use the smallest per-column selectivity"
heuristic applied in some cases by get_foreign_key_join_selectivity()
was badly off if the FK columns are independent, producing estimates
much worse than we got before that code was added in 9.6.
One case where that heuristic was used was for LEFT and FULL outer joins
with the referenced rel on the outside of the join. But we should not
really need to special-case those here. eqjoinsel() never has had such a
special case; the correction is applied by calc_joinrel_size_estimate()
instead. Let's just estimate such cases like inner joins and rely on that
later adjustment. (I think there was something of a thinko here, in that
the comments seem to be thinking about the selectivity as defined for
semi/anti joins; but that shouldn't apply to left/full joins.) Add a
regression test exercising such a case to show that this is sane in
at least some cases.
The other case where we used that heuristic was for SEMI/ANTI outer joins,
either if the referenced rel was on the outside, or if it was on the inside
but was part of a join within the RHS. In either case, the FK doesn't give
us a lot of traction towards estimating the selectivity. To ensure that
we don't have regressions from what happened before 9.6, let's punt by
ignoring the FK in such cases and applying the traditional selectivity
calculation. (We might be able to improve on that later, but for now
I just want to be sure it's not worse than 9.5.)
Report and patch by David Rowley, simplified a bit by me. Back-patch
to 9.6 where this code was added.

When, during logical decoding, a transaction gets too big, it's
contents get spilled to disk. Not just the top-transaction gets
spilled, but *also* all of its subtransactions, even if they're not
that large themselves. Unfortunately we didn't clean up
such small spilled subtransactions from disk.
Fix that, by keeping better track of whether a transaction has been
spilled to disk.

When a new base type is created using the old-style procedure of first
creating the input/output functions with "opaque" in place of the base
type, the "opaque" argument/return type is changed to the final base type,
on CREATE TYPE. However, we did not create a pg_depend record when doing
that, so the functions were left not depending on the type.
Fixes bug #14706, reported by Karen Huddleston.

We had three occurrences of essentially the same coding pattern
wherein we tried to retrieve a query result from a libpq connection
without blocking. In the case where PQconsumeInput failed (typically
indicating a lost connection), all three loops simply gave up and
returned, forgetting to clear any previously-collected PGresult
object. Since those are malloc'd not palloc'd, the oversight results
in a process-lifespan memory leak.
One instance, in libpqwalreceiver, is of little significance because
the walreceiver process would just quit anyway if its connection fails.
But we might as well fix it.
The other two instances, in postgres_fdw, are somewhat more worrisome
because at least in principle the scenario could be repeated, allowing
the amount of memory leaked to build up to something worth worrying
about. Moreover, in these cases the loops contain CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS
calls, as well as other calls that could potentially elog(ERROR),
providing another way to exit without having cleared the PGresult.
Here we need to add PG_TRY logic similar to what exists in quite a
few other places in postgres_fdw.
Coverity noted the libpqwalreceiver bug; I found the other two cases
by checking all calls of PQconsumeInput.
Back-patch to all supported versions as appropriate (9.2 lacks
postgres_fdw, so this is really quite unexciting for that branch).
