Explain that the followings are tracked only when track_io_timing GUC
is enabled.
- blk_read_time and blk_write_time in pg_stat_database
- time spent reading and writing data file blocks in EXPLAIN output
with BUFFERS option
Whther track_io_timing is enabled affects also blk_read_time and
blk_write_time in pg_stat_statements, but which was already documented.

The B-Tree index deduplication strategy used during CREATE INDEX and
REINDEX differs from the lazy strategy used by retail inserts. Make
that clear by adding a new paragraph to the B-Tree implementation
section of the documentation.
In passing, do some copy-editing of nearby deduplication documentation.
The description missed a comma and lacked an explanation of what happens
with REPLICA IDENTITY USING INDEX when the dependent index is dropped.

Synchronize the event names for parallel hash join waits with other
event names, by getting rid of the slashes and dropping "-ing"
suffixes. Rename ClogGroupUpdate to XactGroupUpdate, to match the
new SLRU name. Move the ProcSignalBarrier event to the IPC category;
it doesn't belong under IO.
Also a bit more wordsmithing in the wait event documentation tables.

d140f2f3 has renamed receivedUpto to flushedUpto, and has added
writtenUpto to the WAL receiver's shared memory information, but
pg_stat_wal_receiver was not consistent with that. This commit renames
received_lsn to flushed_lsn, and adds a new column called written_lsn.
Bump catalog version.

libpq's exports.txt was overlooked in commit 36d108761, which the
buildfarm is quite unhappy about.
Also, I'd gathered that the plan included renaming PQgetSSLKeyPassHook
to PQgetSSLKeyPassHook_OpenSSL, but that didn't happen in the patch
as committed. I'm taking it on my own authority to do so now, since
the window before beta1 is closing fast.
4dc6355210 provided a way for libraries and clients to modify how libpq
handles client certificate passphrases, by installing a hook. However,
these routines are quite specific to how OpenSSL works, so it's
misleading and not future-proof to have these names not refer to OpenSSL.
Change all the names to add "_OpenSSL" after "Hook", and fix the docs
accordingly.

It's just weird that this name wasn't chosen to look like an
identifier. The suspicion that it wasn't thought about too
hard is reinforced by the fact that it wasn't documented in
the pg_locks view (until I did so, a day or two back).
Update, and add a comment reminding future adjusters of this
array to fix the docs too.
Do some desultory wordsmithing on various entries in the wait
events tables.

This was mostly confusing, especially since some wait events in
this class had the suffix and some did not.
While at it, stop exposing MainLWLockNames[] as a globally visible
name; any code using that directly is almost certainly wrong, as
its name has been misleading for some time.
(GetLWLockIdentifier() is what to use instead.)

Choose names that fit into the conventions for wait event names
(particularly, that multi-word names are in the style MultiWordName)
and hopefully convey more information to non-hacker users than the
previous names did.
Also rename SerializablePredicateLockListLock to
SerializablePredicateListLock; the old name was long enough to cause
table formatting problems, plus the double occurrence of "Lock" seems
confusing/error-prone.
Also change a couple of particularly opaque LWLock field names.

Originally, the names assigned to SLRUs had no purpose other than
being shmem lookup keys, so not a lot of thought went into them.
As of v13, though, we're exposing them in the pg_stat_slru view and
the pg_stat_reset_slru function, so it seems advisable to take a bit
more care. Rename them to names based on the associated on-disk
storage directories (which fortunately we *did* think about, to some
extent; since those are also visible to DBAs, consistency seems like
a good thing). Also rename the associated LWLocks, since those names
are likewise user-exposed now as wait event names.
For the most part I only touched symbols used in the respective modules'
SimpleLruInit() calls, not the names of other related objects. This
renaming could have been taken further, and maybe someday we will do so.
But for now it seems undesirable to change the names of any globally
visible functions or structs, so some inconsistency is unavoidable.
(But I *did* terminate "oldserxid" with prejudice, as I found that
name both unreadable and not descriptive of the SLRU's contents.)
Table 27.12 needs re-alphabetization now, but I'll leave that till
after the other LWLock renamings I have in mind.

I abbreviated the heck out of the column headings, and made a few
small wording changes, to get it to build warning-free. I can't
say that the result is pretty, but it's probably better than
removing this table entirely.
As of this commit, we have zero "exceed the available area" warnings
in a US-letter PDF build, and one such warning (about an 863-millipoint
overrun) in an A4 build. I expect to get rid of that one by renaming
wait events, so I'm not doing anything about it at the formatting
level.

In one or two places it seemed reasonable to modify the example so as
to shorten its output slightly; but for the most part I just added a
&zwsp; after 67 characters, which is the most we can fit on a line
of monospace text in A4 format.

Includes some manual cleanup of places that pgindent messed up,
most of which weren't per project style anyway.
Notably, it seems some people didn't absorb the style rules of
commit c9d297751, because there were a bunch of new occurrences
of function calls with a newline just after the left paren, all
with faulty expectations about how the rest of the call would get
indented.
The previous design for this table didn't really work in narrow views,
such as PDF output; besides which its reliance on large morerows
values made it a pain to maintain (cf ab3e4fbd5, for example).
I experimented with a couple of ways to fix it, but the best and
simplest is to split it up into a separate table for each event
type category.
I also rearranged the event ordering to be strictly alphabetical,
as nobody would ever be able to find entries otherwise.
There is work afoot to revise the set of event names described
in this table, but this commit just changes the layout, not the
contents.
In passing, add a missing entry to pg_locks.locktype,
and cross-reference that to the related wait event list.

This changes our catalog and view descriptions to use a style inspired
by the new format for function/operator tables: each table entry is
formatted roughly like a <varlistentry>, with the column name and type
on the first line and then an indented description. This provides much
more room for expansive descriptions than we had before, and thereby
eliminates a passel of PDF build warnings.

I can't see any way to make this table fit in PDF column width
without either a fundamental redesign or abbreviating EXCLUSIVE.
So I did the latter.
It'd be nicer if the abbreviating didn't leak into the HTML output
as well; but the hackery required to make the output different
seems like more trouble than it's really worth.

Even after the tweaking I did in commit 5545b69ae, some of the
longer keywords mentioned in the SQL standard don't fit the
available space in PDF output.
I experimented with various solutions like putting such keywords
on their own table lines, but everything looked ugly or confusing
or both; worse, the weirdness also appeared in the HTML version,
which (normally) doesn't need it.
The best answer seems to be to insert &zwsp; into long keywords
so that they can be broken into two lines when, and only when,
needed. It doesn't look too awful if the break happens after
an underscore --- and fortunately, all the problematic keywords
have underscores.

Use xreflabel attributes instead of endterm attributes to control the
appearance of links to subsections of SQL command reference pages.
This is simpler, it matches what we do elsewhere (e.g. for GUC variables),
and it doesn't draw "Unresolved ID reference" warnings from the PDF
toolchain.
Fix some places where the text was absolutely dependent on an <xref>
rendering exactly so, by using a <link> around the required text
instead. At least one of those spots had already been turned into
bad grammar by subsequent changes, and the whole idea is just too
fragile for my taste. <xref> does NOT have fixed output, don't write
as if it does.
Consistently include a page-level link in cross-man-page references,
because otherwise they are useless/nonsensical in man-page output.
Likewise, be consistent about mentioning "below" or "above" in same-page
references; we were doing that in about 90% of the cases, but now it's
100%.
Also get rid of another nonfunctional-in-PDF idea, of making
cross-references to functions by sticking ID tags on <row> constructs.
We can put the IDs on <indexterm>s instead --- which is probably not any
more sensible in abstract terms, but it works where the other doesn't.
(There is talk of attaching cross-reference IDs to most or all of
the docs' function descriptions, but for now I just fixed the two
that exist.)

This patch eliminates a few more "exceed the available area" warnings
whose causes aren't particularly connected to anything else.
The only one really worthy of comment is that I increased the space
allowed for an <orderedlist>'s numbers, because the default of 1em
doesn't quite work for more than one digit. The rest are one-off
insertions of &zwsp; and suchlike tweaks, in places where they
shouldn't do any damage to the material. (In particular, although
I split some long identifiers with zwsp's, there are other nearby
occurrences of each one; so those changes shouldn't hurt greppability
of the document sources.)
