For clarity of review, renaming the function parameter "context" in
ScheduleBufferTagForWriteback() and IssuePendingWritebacks() to
"wb_context" is a separate commit. The next commit adds an "io_context"
parameter and "wb_context" makes it more clear which is which.

After applying outer-join identity 3 in the forward direction,
it was possible for the planner to mistakenly apply a qual clause
from above the two outer joins at the now-lower join level.
This can give the wrong answer, since a value that would get nulled
by the now-upper join might not yet be null.
To fix, when we perform such a transformation, consider that the
now-lower join hasn't really completed the outer join it's nominally
responsible for and thus its relid set should not include that OJ's
relid (nor should its output Vars have that nullingrel bit set).
Instead we add those bits when the now-upper join is performed.
The existing rules for qual placement then suffice to prevent
higher qual clauses from dropping below the now-upper join.
There are a few complications from needing to consider transitive
closures in case multiple pushdowns have happened, but all in all
it's not a very complex patch.
This is all new logic (from 2489d76c4) so no need to back-patch.
The added test cases all have the same results as in v15.

It seems like the code that these checks are backstopping may have
a few bugs left in it. Use a test-and-elog so that the tests are
performed even in non-assert builds, and so that we get something
more informative than "server closed the connection" on failure.
Committed separately with the idea that eventually we'll revert
this. It might be awhile though.

LZ4File_write() did not advance the input pointer on subsequent invocations of
LZ4F_compressUpdate(). As a result the generated compressed output would be a
compressed version of the same input chunk.
Tests failed to catch this error because the data would comfortably fit
within the default buffer size, as a single chunk. Tests have been added
to provide adequate coverage of multi-chunk compression.
WriteDataToArchiveLZ4() which is also using LZ4F_compressUpdate() did
not suffer from this omission.

This is equivalent to a revert of f193883 and fb32748, with the addition
that the declaration of the SQLValueFunction node needs to gain a couple
of node_attr for query jumbling. The performance impact of removing the
function call inlining is proving to be too huge for some workloads
where these are used. A worst-case test case of involving only simple
SELECT queries with a SQL keyword is proving to lead to a reduction of
10% in TPS via pgbench and prepared queries on a high-end machine.
None of the tests I ran back for this set of changes saw such a huge
gap, but Alexander Lakhin and Andres Freund have found that this can be
noticeable. Keeping the older performance would mean to do more
inlining in the executor when using COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX for a function
expression, similarly to what SQLValueFunction does. This requires more
redesign work and there is little time until 16beta1 is released, so for
now reverting the change is the best way forward, bringing back the
previous performance.

fuzzystrmatch's difference() function assumes that _soundex()
always initializes its output buffer fully. This was not so for
the case of a string containing no alphabetic characters, resulting
in unstable output and Valgrind complaints.
Fix by using memset() to fill the whole buffer in the early-exit
case. Also make some cosmetic improvements (I didn't care for the
random switches between "instr[0]" and "*instr" notation).

Give the new GUC introduced by d4e71df6 a name that is clearly not
intended for mainstream use quite yet.
Future proposals would drop the prefix only after adding infrastructure
to make it efficient. Having the switch in the tree sooner is good
because it might lead to new discoveries about the hazards awaiting us
on a wide range of systems, but that name was too enticing and could
lead to cross-version confusion in future, per complaints from Noah and
Justin.

Don't use PSQL_WATCH_PAGER when stdin/stdout are not a terminal.
This corresponds to the restrictions on when other commands will
use [PSQL_]PAGER. There isn't a lot of sense in trying to use a
pager in non-interactive cases, and doing so allows an environment
setting to break our tests.
Also, ignore PSQL_WATCH_PAGER if it is set but empty or all-blank,
for the same reasons we ignore such settings of [PSQL_]PAGER (see
commit 18f8f784c).
No documentation change is really needed, since there is nothing
suggesting that these constraints on [PSQL_]PAGER didn't already
apply to PSQL_WATCH_PAGER too. But I rearranged the text
a little to make it read more naturally (IMHO anyway).
Per report from Pavel Stehule. Back-patch to v15 where

I've had a bee in my bonnet for some time about getting rid of
RestrictInfo.is_pushed_down, because it's squishily defined and
requires not-inexpensive extra tests to use (cf RINFO_IS_PUSHED_DOWN).
In commit 2489d76c4, I tried to make remove_rel_from_query() not
depend on that macro; but the replacement test is buggy,
as exposed by a report from Rushabh Lathia and Robert Haas.
That change was pretty incidental to the main goal of 2489d76c4,
so let's just revert it for now. (Getting rid of is_pushed_down
is still far away, anyway.)

An update of the GUC stats_fetch_consistency in a transaction would be
able to trigger an assertion when doing cache->snapshot. In this case,
when retrieving a pgstat entry after the switch, a new snapshot would be
rebuilt, confusing pgstat_build_snapshot() because a snapshot is already
cached with an unexpected mode ("cache").
In order to fix this problem, this commit adds a flag to force a
snapshot clear each time this GUC is changed. Some tests are added to
check, while on it.
Some optimizations in avoiding the snapshot clear should be possible
depending on what is cached and the current GUC value, I guess, but this
solution is simple, and ensures that the state of the cache is updated
each time a new pgstat entry is fetched, hence being consistent with the
level wanted by the client that has set the GUC.
Note that cache->none and snapshot->none would not cause issues, as
fetching a pgstat entry would be retrieved from shared memory on the
second attempt, however a snapshot would still be cached. Similarly,
none->snapshot and none->cache would build a new snapshot on the second
fetch attempt. Finally, snapshot->cache would cache a new snapshot on
the second attempt.

The commit a6e04b1d20 added a test to ensure that the invalidated logical
slots don't retain WAL. The test was ensuring that the checkpoint removes
the WAL files corresponding to invalidated logical slots on the standby
node but missed the point that the standby node also had a physical slot
which led to the prevention of WAL file removal. Move the creation of
physical slot on the standby and initialization of cascading standby closer
to the test case that actually required it so that other tests don't get
affected by the presence of the physical slot on standby.

The callback function pa_shutdown() accesses MyLogicalRepWorker which may
not be initialized if there is an error during the initialization of the
parallel apply worker. The other problem is that by the time it is invoked
even after the initialization of the worker, the MyLogicalRepWorker will
be reset by another callback logicalrep_worker_onexit. So, it won't have
the required information.
To fix this, register the shutdown callback after we are attached to the
worker slot.
After this fix, we observed another issue which is that sometimes the
leader apply worker tries to receive the message from the error queue that
might already be detached by the parallel apply worker leading to an
error. To prevent such an error, we ensure that the leader apply worker
detaches from the parallel apply worker's error queue before stopping it.

Commit 1de58df4, which added page-level freezing, taught VACUUM to reuse
each page's "set-visibility-map" snapshotConflictHorizon for freezing
(at least in the vast majority of cases where freezing went ahead).
This made VACUUM FREEZE much less prone to generating recovery conflicts
on standbys; VACUUM FREEZE became only slightly more likely to cause
recovery conflicts than an equivalent VACUUM.
Update old documentation that specifically warned of the likelihood of
recovery conflicts from VACUUM FREEZE. Explain the same general issue
(the issue of VACUUM generating recovery conflicts even in the absence
of dead row cleanup) using the example of conflicts caused by VISIBLE
WAL records.
If an SRF in the FROM clause references a table having row-level
security policies, and we inline that SRF into the calling query,
we neglected to mark the plan as potentially dependent on which
role is executing it. This could lead to later executions in the
same session returning or hiding rows that should have been hidden
or returned instead.

Security: CVE-2023-2455
The two methods don't cooperate, so set_config_option("search_path",
...) has been ineffective under non-empty overrideStack. This defect
enabled an attacker having database-level CREATE privilege to execute
arbitrary code as the bootstrap superuser. While that particular attack
requires v13+ for the trusted extension attribute, other attacks are
feasible in all supported versions.
Standardize on the combination of NewGUCNestLevel() and
set_config_option("search_path", ...). It is newer than
PushOverrideSearchPath(), more-prevalent, and has no known
disadvantages. The "override" mechanism remains for now, for
compatibility with out-of-tree code. Users should update such code,
which likely suffers from the same sort of vulnerability closed here.

Commit 153e215677 added the portlock directory. This is created in
$ENV{top_builddir} if it is set. Under PGXS, top_builddir points into
the installation directory, which is not necessarily writable and in
any case inappropriate to use by a test suite. The cause of the
problem is that the prove_installcheck target in Makefile.global
exports top_builddir, which isn't useful (since no other Perl code
actually reads it) and breaks this use case. The reason this code is
there is probably that is has been dragged around with various other
changes, in particular a0fc813266, but without a real purpose of its
own. By just removing the exporting of top_builddir in
prove_installcheck, the portlock directory then ends up under
tmp_check in the build directory, which is more suitable.
