    Redesign API presented by nodeAgg.c for ordered-set and similar aggregates. · 6f5034ed
    Tom Lane authored
    The previous design exposed the input and output ExprContexts of the
    Agg plan node, but work on grouping sets has suggested that we'll regret
    doing that.  Instead provide more narrowly-defined APIs that can be
    implemented in multiple ways, namely a way to get a short-term memory
    context and a way to register an aggregate shutdown callback.
    
    Back-patch to 9.4 where the bad APIs were introduced, since we don't
    want third-party code using these APIs and then having to change in 9.5.
