When rebuilding the relation mapping on subscribers, we were not releasing
the attribute mapping's memory which was no longer required.

The attribute mapping used in logical tuple conversion was refactored in
PG13 (by commit e1551f96) but we forgot to update the related code that
frees the attribute map.

SPI_commit previously left it up to the caller to recover from any error
occurring during commit.  Since that's complicated and requires use of
low-level xact.c facilities, it's not too surprising that no caller got
it right.  Let's move the responsibility for cleanup into spi.c.  Doing
that requires redefining SPI_commit as starting a new transaction, so
that it becomes equivalent to SPI_commit_and_chain except that you get
default transaction characteristics instead of preserving the prior
transaction's characteristics.  We can make this pretty transparent
API-wise by redefining SPI_start_transaction() as a no-op.  Callers
that expect to do something in between might be surprised, but
available evidence is that no callers do so.

Having made that API redefinition, we can fix this mess by having
SPI_commit[_and_chain] trap errors and start a new, clean transaction
before re-throwing the error.  Likewise for SPI_rollback[_and_chain].
Some cleanup is also needed in AtEOXact_SPI, which was nowhere near
smart enough to deal with SPI contexts nested inside a committing
context.

While plperl and pltcl need no changes beyond removing their now-useless
SPI_start_transaction() calls, plpython needs some more work because it
hadn't gotten the memo about catching commit/rollback errors in the
first place.  Such an error resulted in longjmp'ing out of the Python
interpreter, which leaks Python stack entries at present and is reported
to crash Python 3.11 altogether.  Add the missing logic to catch such
errors and convert them into Python exceptions.

This is a back-patch of commit 2e517818f.  That's now aged long enough
to reduce the concerns about whether it will break something, and we
do need to ensure that supported branches will work with Python 3.11.

In logical replication, we will check if the target table on the
subscriber is updatable by comparing the replica identity of the table on
the publisher with the table on the subscriber. When the target table is a
partitioned table, we only check its replica identity but not for the
partition tables. This leads to assertion failure while applying changes
for update/delete as we expect those to succeed only when the
corresponding partition table has a primary key or has a replica
identity defined.

Fix it by checking the replica identity of the partition table while
applying changes.

If an application executed operations like EXEC SQL PREPARE
without having first established a database connection, it could
get a core dump instead of the expected clean failure.  This
occurred because we did "pthread_getspecific(actual_connection_key)"
without ever having initialized the TSD key actual_connection_key.
The results of that are probably platform-specific, but at least
on Linux it often leads to a crash.

To fix, add calls to ecpg_pthreads_init() in the code paths that
might use actual_connection_key uninitialized.  It's harmless
(and hopefully inexpensive) to do that more than once.

there were no regression test cases to jog my memory.  But the

case showing why it's necessary.  (Note: per comment in struct
DatumTupleFields, it is correct to produce an output tuple that's
labeled with the base composite type, not the domain; hence just
blindly looking through the domain is correct here.)

The patch introducing jsonpath dropped a para about that between
two related examples, and didn't bother updating the introductory
sentences that it falsified.  The grammar was pretty shaky as well.

Bug #17512 highlighted that a suitably broken data type could cause the
backend to crash if either the hash function or equality function were in
someway non-deterministic based on their input values.  Such a data type
could cause a crash of the backend due to some code which assumes that
we'll always find a hash table entry corresponding to an item in the
Memoize LRU list.

Here we remove the assumption that we'll always find the entry
corresponding to the given LRU list item and add run-time checks to verify
we have found the given item in the cache.

This is not a fix for bug #17512, but it will turn the crash reported by
that bug report into an internal ERROR.

psql --single-transaction is able to handle multiple -c and -f switches
in a single transaction since d5563d7d, but this had the surprising
behavior of forcing a transaction COMMIT even if psql failed with an
error in the client (for example incorrect path given to \copy), which
would generate an error, but still commit any changes that were already
applied in the backend.  This commit makes the behavior more consistent,
by enforcing a transaction ROLLBACK if any commands fail, both
client-side and backend-side, so as no changes are applied if one error
happens in any of them.

Some tests are added on HEAD to provide some coverage about all that.
Backend-side errors are unreliable as IPC::Run can complain on SIGPIPE
if psql quits before reading a query result, but that should work
properly in the case where any errors come from psql itself, which is
what the original report is about.

This reverts commit d9d07622 "VACUUM: ignore indexing operations
with CONCURRENTLY".

These changes caused indexes created with the CONCURRENTLY option to
miss heap tuples that were HOT-updated and HOT-pruned during the index
creation.  Before these changes, HOT pruning would have been prevented
by the Xmin of the transaction creating the index, but because this
change was precisely to allow the Xmin to move forward ignoring that
backend, now other backends scanning the table can prune them.  This is
not a problem for VACUUM (which requires a lock that conflicts with a
CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY operation), but HOT-prune can definitely
occur.  In other words, Xmin advancement was sped up, but at the cost of
corrupting the resulting index.

Regrettably, this means that the new feature in PG14 that RIC/CIC on
very large tables no longer force VACUUM to retain very old tuples goes
away.  We might try to implement it again in a later release, but for
now the risk of indexes missing tuples is too high and there's no easy
fix.
