/*
 * INTERFACE ROUTINES
 *		ExecMergeJoin			mergejoin outer and inner relations.
 *		ExecInitMergeJoin		creates and initializes run time states
 *		ExecEndMergeJoin		cleans up the node.
 *
 * NOTES
 *
 *		Merge-join is done by joining the inner and outer tuples satisfying
 *		join clauses of the form ((= outerKey innerKey) ...).
 *		The join clause list is provided by the query planner and may contain
 *		more than one (= outerKey innerKey) clause (for composite sort key).
 *
 *		However, the query executor needs to know whether an outer
 *		tuple is "greater/smaller" than an inner tuple so that it can
 *		"synchronize" the two relations. For example, consider the following
 *		relations:
 *
 *				outer: (0 ^1 1 2 5 5 5 6 6 7)	current tuple: 1
 *				inner: (1 ^3 5 5 5 5 6)			current tuple: 3
 *
 *		To continue the merge-join, the executor needs to scan both inner
 *		and outer relations till the matching tuples 5. It needs to know
 *		that currently inner tuple 3 is "greater" than outer tuple 1 and
 *		therefore it should scan the outer relation first to find a
 *		matching tuple and so on.
 *
 *		Therefore, rather than directly executing the merge join clauses,
 *		we evaluate the left and right key expressions separately and then
 *		compare the columns one at a time (see MJCompare).  The planner
 *		passes us enough information about the sort ordering of the inputs
 *		to allow us to determine how to make the comparison.  We may use the
 *		appropriate btree comparison function, since Postgres' only notion
 *		of ordering is specified by btree opfamilies.
 *
 *
 *		Consider the above relations and suppose that the executor has
 *		just joined the first outer "5" with the last inner "5". The
 *		next step is of course to join the second outer "5" with all
 *		the inner "5's". This requires repositioning the inner "cursor"
 *		to point at the first inner "5". This is done by "marking" the
 *		first inner 5 so we can restore the "cursor" to it before joining
 *		with the second outer 5. The access method interface provides
 *		routines to mark and restore to a tuple.
 *
 *
 *		Essential operation of the merge join algorithm is as follows:
 *
 *		Join {
 *			get initial outer and inner tuples				INITIALIZE
 *			do forever {
 *				while (outer != inner) {					SKIP_TEST
 *					if (outer < inner)
 *						advance outer						SKIPOUTER_ADVANCE
 *					else
 *						advance inner						SKIPINNER_ADVANCE
 *				}
 *				mark inner position							SKIP_TEST
 *				do forever {
 *					while (outer == inner) {
 *						join tuples							JOINTUPLES
 *						advance inner position				NEXTINNER
 *					}
 *					advance outer position					NEXTOUTER
 *					if (outer == mark)						TESTOUTER
 *						restore inner position to mark		TESTOUTER
 *					else
 *						break	// return to top of outer loop
 *				}
 *			}
 *		}
 *
 *		The merge join operation is coded in the fashion
 *		of a state machine.  At each state, we do something and then
 *		proceed to another state.  This state is stored in the node's
 *		execution state information and is preserved across calls to
 *		ExecMergeJoin. -cim 10/31/89

 *
 * For the convenience of callers, we also make this routine responsible
