If the CALL is within an atomic context (e.g. there's an outer
transaction block), _SPI_execute_plan should acquire a fresh snapshot
to execute any such functions with. We failed to do that and instead
passed them the Portal snapshot, which had been acquired at the start
of the current SQL command. This'd lead to seeing stale values of
rows modified since the start of the command.
This is arguably a bug in 84f5c2908: I failed to see that "are we in
non-atomic mode" needs to be defined the same way as it is further
down in _SPI_execute_plan, i.e. check !_SPI_current->atomic not just
options->allow_nonatomic. Alternatively the blame could be laid on
plpgsql, which is unconditionally passing allow_nonatomic = true
for CALL/DO even when it knows it's in an atomic context. However,
fixing it in spi.c seems like a better idea since that will also fix
the problem for any extensions that may have copied plpgsql's coding
pattern.
While here, update an obsolete comment about _SPI_execute_plan's
snapshot management.
Per report from Victor Yegorov. Back-patch to all supported versions.

The documentation for POSIX semaphores is missing a reference to
max_wal_senders. This commit fixes that in the same way that
commit 4ebe51a5fb fixed the same issue in the documentation for
System V semaphores.

The formulas for SEMMNI and SEMMNS do not include the archiver
process, which was converted to an auxiliary process in v14, and
the WAL summarizer process, which was introduced in v17. This
commit corrects these formulas and adds a missing reference to
max_wal_senders nearby. Since this section of the documentation
tends to be incorrect quite often, we should likely give up on
documenting the exact formulas in favor of something less fragile,
but that is left as a future exercise.

When MERGE/SPLIT created new partitions, it was cloning the extended
statistics of the parent table.
However, extended stats on partitioned tables don't behave like
indexes on partitioned tables (which exist only to create physical
indexes on child tables). Rather, extended stats on a parent 1) cause
extended stats to be collected and computed across the whole partition
hierarchy, and 2) do not cause extended stats to be computed for the
individual partitions.
"CREATE TABLE ... PARTITION OF" command doesn't copy extended
statistics. This commit makes createPartitionTable() behave
consistently.

This reverts commit e1e83a7171.
Per further discussion on pgsql-release, we wish to ship beta1 with
that feature, and patch the bug, rather than shipping beta1 with
that feature reverted.
After further review, we want to move in the direction of always
quoting GUC names in error messages, rather than the previous (PG16)
wildly mixed practice or the intermittent (mid-PG17) idea of doing
this depending on how possibly confusing the GUC name is.
This commit applies appropriate quotes to (almost?) all mentions of
GUC names in error messages. It partially supersedes a243569bf6 and
8d9978a717, which had moved things a bit in the opposite direction
but which then were abandoned in a partial state.

There were three problems with the sslnegotiation options:
1. The sslmode=prefer and sslnegotiation=requiredirect combination was
somewhat dangerous, as you might unintentionally fall back to
plaintext authentication when connecting to a pre-v17 server.
2. There was an asymmetry between 'postgres' and 'direct'
options. 'postgres' meant "try only traditional negotiation", while
'direct' meant "try direct first, and fall back to traditional
negotiation if it fails". That was apparent only if you knew that the
'requiredirect' mode also exists.
3. The "require" word in 'requiredirect' suggests that it's somehow
more strict or more secure, similar to sslmode. However, I don't
consider direct SSL connections to be a security feature.
To address these problems:
- Only allow sslnegotiation='direct' if sslmode='require' or
stronger. And for the record, Jacob and Robert felt that we should do
that (or have sslnegotiation='direct' imply sslmode='require') anyway,
regardless of the first issue.
- Remove the 'direct' mode that falls back to traditional negotiation,
and rename what was called 'requiredirect' to 'direct' instead. In
other words, there is no "try both methods" option anymore, 'postgres'
now means the traditional negotiation and 'direct' means a direct SSL
connection.

The CREATE SUBSCRIPTION documentation mentions "false" is the default
option, so let's use true|false rather than on|off in the text which
talks about this option in the ALTER SUBSCRIPTION page.
The other boolean options mentioned in create_subscription.sgml use true
and false so it makes sense to be consistent with these. The "failover"
option is new to v17.
