Robert Haas d2d3547979 Allow db.schema.table patterns, but complain about random garbage. ... psql, pg_dump, and pg_amcheck share code to process object name patterns like 'foo*.bar*' to match all tables with names starting in 'bar' that are in schemas starting with 'foo'. Before v14, any number of extra name parts were silently ignored, so a command line '\d foo.bar.baz.bletch.quux' was interpreted as '\d bletch.quux'. In v14, as a result of commit 2c8726c4b0, we instead treated this as a request for table quux in a schema named 'foo.bar.baz.bletch'. That caused problems for people like Justin Pryzby who were accustomed to copying strings of the form db.schema.table from messages generated by PostgreSQL itself and using them as arguments to \d. Accordingly, revise things so that if an object name pattern contains more parts than we're expecting, we throw an error, unless there's exactly one extra part and it matches the current database name. That way, thisdb.myschema.mytable is accepted as meaning just myschema.mytable, but otherdb.myschema.mytable is an error, and so is some.random.garbage.myschema.mytable.
