Previously we used attname for both table and index columns, but
that is problematic for indexes because their attnames are assigned
by internal rules that don't guarantee to preserve the names across
dump and reload. (This is what's causing the remaining buildfarm
failures in cross-version-upgrade tests.) Fortunately we can use
attnum instead, since there's no such thing as adding or dropping
columns in an existing index. We met this same problem previously
with ALTER INDEX ... SET STATISTICS, and solved it the same way,
cf commit 5b6d13eec.
In pg_restore_attribute_stats() itself, we accept either attnum or
attname, but the policy used by pg_dump is to always use attname
for tables and attnum for indexes.

This patch introduces the '--enable-two-phase' option to the
'pg_createsubscriber' utility, allowing users to enable two-phase commit
for all subscriptions during their creation.
Note that even without this option users can enable the two_phase option
for the subscriptions created by pg_createsubscriber. However, it requires
the subscription to be disabled first which could be inconvenient for
users.
When two-phase commit is enabled, prepared transactions are sent to the
subscriber at the time of 'PREPARE TRANSACTION', and they are processed as
two-phase transactions on the subscriber as well. If disabled, prepared
transactions are sent only when committed and are processed immediately by
the subscriber.

This commit is a rework of 2421e9a51d, about which Andres Freund has
raised some concerns as it is valuable to have both track_io_timing and
track_wal_io_timing in some cases, as the WAL write and fsync paths can
be a major bottleneck for some workloads. Hence, it can be relevant to
not calculate the WAL timings in environments where pg_test_timing
performs poorly while capturing some IO data under track_io_timing for
the non-WAL IO paths. The opposite can be also true: it should be
possible to disable the non-WAL timings and enable the WAL timings (the
previous GUC setups allowed this possibility).
track_wal_io_timing is added back in this commit, controlling if WAL
timings should be calculated in pg_stat_io for the read, fsync and write
paths, as done previously with pg_stat_wal. pg_stat_wal previously
tracked only the sync and write parts (now removed), read stats is new
data tracked in pg_stat_io, all three are aggregated if
track_wal_io_timing is enabled. The read part matters during recovery
or if a XLogReader is used.
Extra note: more control over if the types of timings calculated in
pg_stat_io could be done with a GUC that lists pairs of (IOObject,IOOp).

This basically mirrors the changes done in the predecessor commit. While there
isn't currently a need to get these paths in critical sections, it seems a
shame to unnecessarily allocate memory in these paths now that relpath()
doesn't allocate anymore.
Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/xeri5mla4b5syjd5a25nok5iez2kr3bm26j2qn4u7okzof2bmf@kwdh2vf7npra
For AIO, and also some other recent patches, we need the ability to call
relpath() in a critical section. Until now that was not feasible, as it
allocated memory.
The fact that relpath() allocated memory also made it awkward to use in log
messages because we had to take care to free the memory afterwards. Which we
e.g. didn't do for when zeroing out an invalid buffer.
We discussed other solutions, e.g. filling a pre-allocated buffer that's
passed to relpath(), but they all came with plenty downsides or were larger
projects. The easiest fix seems to be to make relpath() return the path by
value.
To be able to return the path by value we need to determine the maximum length
of a relation path. This patch adds a long #define that computes the exact
maximum, which is verified to be correct in a regression test.
As this change the signature of relpath(), extensions using it will need to
adapt their code. We discussed leaving a backward-compat shim in place, but
decided it's not worth it given the use of relpath() doesn't seem widespread.

Commit 83ea6c540 added support for virtual generated columns that are
computed on read. All Var nodes in the query that reference virtual
generated columns must be replaced with the corresponding generation
expressions. Currently, this replacement occurs in the rewriter.
However, this approach has several issues. If a Var referencing a
virtual generated column has any varnullingrels, those varnullingrels
need to be propagated into the generation expression. Failing to do
so can lead to "wrong varnullingrels" errors and improper outer-join
removal.
Additionally, if such a Var comes from the nullable side of an outer
join, we may need to wrap the generation expression in a
PlaceHolderVar to ensure that it is evaluated at the right place and
hence is forced to null when the outer join should do so. In certain
cases, such as when the query uses grouping sets, we also need a
PlaceHolderVar for anything that is not a simple Var to isolate
subexpressions. Failure to do so can result in incorrect results.
To fix these issues, this patch expands the virtual generated columns
in the planner rather than in the rewriter, and leverages the
pullup_replace_vars architecture to avoid code duplication. The
generation expressions will be correctly marked with nullingrel bits
and wrapped in PlaceHolderVars when needed by the pullup_replace_vars
callback function. This requires handling the OLD/NEW RETURNING list
Vars in pullup_replace_vars_callback, as it may now deal with Vars
referencing the result relation instead of a subquery.
The "wrong varnullingrels" error was reported by Alexander Lakhin.
The incorrect result issue and the improper outer-join removal issue
were reported by Richard Guo.

Pages from the bitmap created by the TIDBitmap API can be exact or
lossy. The TIDBitmap API extracts the tuple offsets from exact pages
into an array for the convenience of the caller.
This was done in tbm_private|shared_iterate() right after advancing the
iterator. However, as long as tbm_private|shared_iterate() set a
reference to the PagetableEntry in the TBMIterateResult, the offset
extraction can be done later.
Waiting to extract the tuple offsets has a few benefits. For the shared
iterator case, it allows us to extract the offsets after dropping the
shared iterator state lock, reducing time spent holding a contended
lock.
Separating the iteration step and extracting the offsets later also
allows us to avoid extracting the offsets for prefetched blocks. Those
offsets were never used, so the overhead of extracting and storing them
was wasted.
The real motivation for this change, however, is that future commits
will make bitmap heap scan use the read stream API. This requires a
TBMIterateResult per issued block. By removing the array of tuple
offsets from the TBMIterateResult and only extracting the offsets when
they are used, we reduce the memory required for per buffer data
substantially.

The 'cached-plan-inval' test suite, introduced in 525392d57 under
src/test/modules/delay_execution, aimed to verify that cached plan
invalidation triggers replanning after deferred locks are taken.
However, its ExecutorStart_hook-based approach relies on lock timing
assumptions that, in retrospect, are fragile. This instability was
exposed by failures on BF animal trilobite, which builds with
CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS.
One option was to dynamically disable the cache behavior that causes
the test suite to fail by setting "debug_discard_caches = 0", but it
seems better to remove the suite. The risk of future failures due to
other cache flush hazards outweighs the benefit of catching real
breakage in the backend behavior it tests.

To implement AIO writes, the backend initiating writes needs to transfer the
lock ownership to the AIO subsystem, so the lock held during the write can be
released in another backend.
Other backends need to be able to "complete" an asynchronously started IO to
avoid deadlocks (consider e.g. one backend starting IO for a buffer and then
waiting for a heavyweight lock held by another relation followed by the
current holder of the heavyweight lock waiting for the IO to complete).
To that end, this commit adds LWLockDisown() and LWLockReleaseDisowned(). If
code uses LWLockDisown() it's the code's responsibility to ensure that the
lock is released in case of errors.

Per the buildfarm, these tests appear to be unstable in the wake of
commit ddb17e387a. I'm not sure that
just hiding this output is the right way forward, because I think
there may be other test cases that will fail with lower probability
even after this fix. However, it's hard to tell right now, because
this is failing on a number of buildfarm animals. So let's try this
for now to either get a clearer picture of what else is broken, or
as a stopgap until we decide what the permanent fix should be, or
perhaps this will be the permanent fix after all.
Concurrently dropping either the granted role or the grantee
does not stop GRANT from completing, instead resulting in a
dangling role reference in pg_auth_members. That's relatively
harmless in the short run, but inconsistent catalog entries
are not a good thing.
This patch solves the problem by adding the granted and grantee
roles as explicit shared dependencies of the pg_auth_members entry.
That's a bit indirect, but it works because the pg_shdepend code
applies the necessary locking and rechecking.
Commit 6566133c5 previously established similar handling for
the grantor column of pg_auth_members; it's not clear why it
didn't cover the other two role OID columns.
A side-effect of this approach is that DROP OWNED BY will now drop
pg_auth_members entries that mention the target role as either the
granted or grantee role. That's clearly appropriate for the
grantee, since we'll drop its other privileges too. It doesn't
seem too far out of line for the granted role, since we're
presumably about to drop it and besides we're removing all reasons
why it'd matter to be a member of it. (One could argue that this
makes DropRole's code to auto-drop pg_auth_members entries
unnecessary, but I chose to leave it in place since perhaps some
people's workflows expect that to work without a DROP OWNED BY.)
Note to patch readers: CreateRole's first CommandCounterIncrement
call is now unconditional, because this change creates another
case in which it's needed, and it seemed to be more trouble than
it's worth to preserve that micro-optimization.
Arguably this is a bug fix, but the fact that it changes the
expected contents of pg_shdepend seems like not a great thing
to do in the stable branches, and perhaps we don't want the
change in DROP OWNED BY semantics there either. On the other
hand, I opted not to force a catversion bump in HEAD, because
the presence or absence of these entries doesn't matter for
most purposes.
