With very unlucky timing and parallel_leader_participation off, PHJ
could attempt to access per-batch state just as it was being freed.
There was code intended to prevent that by checking for a cleared
pointer, but it was buggy.

Fix, by introducing an extra barrier phase.  The new phase
PHJ_BUILD_RUNNING means that it's safe to access the per-batch state to
find a batch to help with, and PHJ_BUILD_DONE means that it is too late.
The last to detach will free the array of per-batch state as before, but
now it will also atomically advance the phase at the same time, so that
late attachers can avoid the hazard, without the data race.  This
mirrors the way per-batch hash tables are freed (see phases
PHJ_BATCH_PROBING and PHJ_BATCH_DONE).

Revealed by a one-off build farm failure, where BarrierAttach() failed a
sanity check assertion, because the memory had been clobbered by
dsa_free().

Back-patch to 11, where the code arrived.

It seems like a useful sanity check to be able to run "installcheck"
against a cluster running with default_transaction_level set to
serializable or repeatable read.  Only one thing currently fails in
those configurations, so let's fix that.

No back-patch for now, because it fails in many other places in some of
the stable branches.  We'd have to go back and fix those too if we
included this configuration in automated testing.

Oversight in commit d168b666, which added bottom-up index deletion.

Empty sibling pages can occasionally be much more common than any other
event that we report on at elevel DEBUG1.  Increase the elevel for
relevant cases to DEBUG2 to avoid overwhelming the user with relatively
insignificant details.

After reading the root cert list from the ssl_ca_file, immediately
install it as client CA list of the new SSL context.  That gives the
SSL context ownership of the list, so that SSL_CTX_free will free it.
This avoids a permanent memory leak if we fail further down in
be_tls_init(), which could happen if bogus CRL data is offered.

The leak could only amount to something if the CRL parameters get
broken after server start (else we'd just quit) and then the server
is SIGHUP'd many times without fixing the CRL data.  That's rather
unlikely perhaps, but it seems worth fixing, if only because the
code is clearer this way.

While we're here, add some comments about the memory management
aspects of this logic.

It's hard to avoid the conclusion that there is something wrong with
setjmp/longjmp on MinGW-64, as we have seen failures come and go after
entirely-unrelated-looking changes in our own code.  Other projects
such as Ruby have given up and started using gcc's setjmp/longjmp
builtins on that platform; this patch just follows that lead.

Note that this is a pretty fundamental ABI break for functions
containining either setjmp or longjmp, so we can't really consider
a back-patch.

This commit changes WAL archiver process so that it's treated as
an auxiliary process and can use shared memory. This is an infrastructure
patch required for upcoming shared-memory based stats collector patch
series. These patch series basically need any processes including archiver
that can report the statistics to access to shared memory. Since this patch
itself is useful to simplify the code and when users monitor the status of
archiver, it's committed separately in advance.

This commit simplifies the code for WAL archiving. For example, previously
backends need to signal to archiver via postmaster when they notify
archiver that there are some WAL files to archive. On the other hand,
this commit removes that signal to postmaster and enables backends to
notify archier directly using shared latch.

Also, as the side of this change, the information about archiver process
becomes viewable at pg_stat_activity view.

Consistently set a flag variable that tracks whether the current heap
page has a dead item during lazy vacuum's heap scan.  We missed the
common case where there is an preexisting (or even a new) LP_DEAD heap
line pointer.

Also make it clear that the variable might be affected by an existing
line pointer, say from an earlier opportunistic pruning operation.  This
distinction is important because it's the main reason why we can't just
use the nearby tups_vacuumed variable instead.

No backpatch.  In theory failing to set the page level flag variable had
no consequences.  Currently it is only used to defensively check if a
page marked all visible has dead items, which should never happen anyway
(if it does then the table must be corrupt).

psql's editing commands decide whether the user has edited the file
by checking for change of modification timestamp.  This is probably
fine for a pre-existing file, but with a temporary file that is
created within the command, it's possible for a fast typist to
save-and-exit in less than the one-second granularity of stat(2)
timestamps.  On Windows FAT filesystems the granularity is even
worse, 2 seconds, making the race a bit easier to hit.

To fix, try to set the temp file's mod time to be two seconds ago.
It's unlikely this would fail, but then again the race condition
itself is unlikely, so just ignore any error.

Also, we might as well check the file size as well as its mod time.

While this is a difficult bug to hit, it still seems worth
back-patching, to ensure that users' edits aren't lost.
