It seems like it might be a good idea to have a function mirroring
InitPostmasterChild() / InitStandaloneProcess() for postmaster in miscinit.c

Neither is actually initialized as an auxiliary process, so it does not really
make sense to reserve a PGPROC etc for them.
This keeps checker mode implemented by exiting partway through bootstrap

postgres_fdw imported generated columns from the remote tables as plain
columns, and caused failures like "ERROR: cannot insert a non-DEFAULT
value into column "foo"" when inserting into the foreign tables, as it
tried to insert values into the generated columns. To fix, we do the
following under the assumption that generated columns in a postgres_fdw
foreign table are defined so that they represent generated columns in
the underlying remote table:
* Send DEFAULT for the generated columns to the foreign server on insert
or update, not generated column values computed on the local server.
* Add to postgresImportForeignSchema() an option "import_generated" to
include column generated expressions in the definitions of foreign
tables imported from a foreign server. The option is true by default.
The assumption seems reasonable, because that would make a query of the
postgres_fdw foreign table return values for the generated columns that
are consistent with the generated expression.
While here, fix another issue in postgresImportForeignSchema(): it tried
to include column generated expressions as column default expressions in
the foreign table definitions when the import_default option was enabled.
Per bug #16631 from Daniel Cherniy. Back-patch to v12 where generated
columns were added.

This fixes a long-standing bug when using to_char() to format a
numeric value in scientific notation -- if the value's exponent is
less than -NUMERIC_MAX_DISPLAY_SCALE-1 (-1001), it produced a
division-by-zero error.
The reason for this error was that get_str_from_var_sci() divides its
input by 10^exp, which it produced using power_var_int(). However, the
underflow test in power_var_int() causes it to return zero if the
result scale is too small. That's not a problem for power_var_int()'s
only other caller, power_var(), since that limits the rscale to 1000,
but in get_str_from_var_sci() the exponent can be much smaller,
requiring a much larger rscale. Fix by introducing a new function to
compute 10^exp directly, with no rscale limit. This also allows 10^exp
to be computed more efficiently, without any numeric multiplication,
division or rounding.

in the regexp language due to using our own regexp engine -- most
notably, that the default newline-matching behavior is different.
Similar functions appear in DB2 and elsewhere, too. Aside from
easing portability, these functions are easier to use for certain

959d00e9d added the ability to make use of an Append node instead of a
MergeAppend when we wanted to perform a scan of a partitioned table and
the required sort order was the same as the partitioned keys and the
partitioned table was defined in such a way that earlier partitions were
guaranteed to only contain lower-order values than later partitions.
However, previously we didn't allow these ordered partition scans for
LIST partitioned table when there were any partitions that allowed
multiple Datums. This was a very cheap check to make and we could likely
have done a little better by checking if there were interleaved
partitions, but at the time we didn't have visibility about which
partitions were pruned, so we still may have disallowed cases where all
interleaved partitions were pruned.
Since 475dbd0b7, we now have knowledge of pruned partitions, we can do a
much better job inside partitions_are_ordered().
Here we pass which partitions survived partition pruning into
partitions_are_ordered() and, for LIST partitioning, have it check to see
if any live partitions exist that are also in the new "interleaved_parts"
field defined in PartitionBoundInfo.
For RANGE partitioning we can relax the code which caused the partitions
to be unordered if a DEFAULT partition existed. Since we now know which
partitions were pruned, partitions_are_ordered() now returns true when the
DEFAULT partition was pruned.

For partitioned tables with large numbers of partitions where queries are
able to prune all but a very small number of partitions, the time spent in
the planner looping over RelOptInfo.part_rels checking for non-NULL
RelOptInfos could become a large portion of the overall planning time.
Here we add a Bitmapset that records the non-pruned partitions. This
allows us to more efficiently skip the pruned partitions by looping over
the Bitmapset.
This will cause a very slight slow down in cases where no or not many
partitions could be pruned, however, those cases are already slow to plan
anyway and the overhead of looping over the Bitmapset would be
unmeasurable when compared with the other tasks such as path creation for
a large number of partitions.

This fixes a couple of related problems that arise when raising
numbers to very large powers.
Firstly, when raising a negative number to a very large integer power,
the result should be well-defined, but the previous code would only
cope if the exponent was small enough to go through power_var_int().
Otherwise it would throw an internal error, attempting to take the
logarithm of a negative number. Fix this by adding suitable handling
to the general case in power_var() to cope with negative bases,
checking for integer powers there.
Next, when raising a (positive or negative) number whose absolute
value is slightly less than 1 to a very large power, the result should
approach zero as the power is increased. However, in some cases, for
sufficiently large powers, this would lose all precision and return 1
instead of 0. This was due to the way that the local_rscale was being
calculated for the final full-precision calculation:
local_rscale = rscale + (int) val - ln_dweight + 8
The first two terms on the right hand side are meant to give the
number of significant digits required in the result ("val" being the
estimated result weight). However, this failed to account for the fact
that rscale is clipped to a maximum of NUMERIC_MAX_DISPLAY_SCALE
(1000), and the result weight might be less then -1000, causing their
sum to be negative, leading to a loss of precision. Fix this by
forcing the number of significant digits calculated to be nonnegative.
It's OK for it to be zero (when the result weight is less than -1000),
since the local_rscale value then includes a few extra digits to
ensure an accurate result.
Finally, add additional underflow checks to exp_var() and power_var(),
so that they consistently return zero for cases like this where the
result is indistinguishable from zero. Some paths through this code
already returned zero in such cases, but others were throwing overflow
errors.

It should always be the case that the last checkpoint record is still
readable, because otherwise, a crash would leave us in a situation
from which we can't recover. Therefore the test removed by this patch
should always succeed. For it to fail, either there has to be a serious
bug in the code someplace, or the user has to be manually modifying
pg_wal while crash recovery is running. If it's the first one, we
should fix the bug. If it's the second one, they should stop, or
anyway they're doing so at their own risk. In neither case does
a full checkpoint instead of an end-of-recovery record seem like a
clear winner. Furthermore, rarely-taken code paths are particularly
vulnerable to bugs, so let's simplify by getting rid of this one.

CheckpointLock was removed in commit d18e75664a, and commit ce197e91d0
updated a leftover comment in CreateCheckPoint, but there was another
copy of it in CreateRestartPoint still.
A pending asynchronous request is handled by process_pending_request(),
which previously not only processed an in-progress remote query but
performed ExecForeignScan() to produce a tuple to return to the local
server asynchronously from the result of the remote query. But that led
to a server crash when executing a query or led to an "InstrStartNode
called twice in a row" or "InstrEndLoop called on running node" failure
when doing EXPLAIN ANALYZE of it, in cases where the plan tree for it
contained multiple async-capable nodes accessing the same
initplan/subplan that contained multiple async-capable nodes scanning
the same foreign tables as for the parent async-capable nodes, as
reported by Andrey Lepikhov. The reason is that the second step in
process_pending_request() invoked when executing the initplan/subplan
for one of the parent async-capable nodes caused recursive execution of
the initplan/subplan for another of the parent async-capable nodes.
To fix, split process_pending_request() into the two steps and postpone
the second step until ForeignAsyncConfigureWait() is called for each of
the pending asynchronous requests. Also, in ExecAppendAsyncEventWait()
we assumed that FDWs would register at least one wait event in a
WaitEventSet created there when they were called from
ForeignAsyncConfigureWait() in that function, but allow FDWs to register
zero wait events in the WaitEventSet; modify ExecAppendAsyncEventWait()
to just return in that case.
