Tuple conversion incorrectly concluded that no conversion was needed
as long as all the attributes lined up. But if the source tuple has a
missing attribute (from addition of a column with default), then the
destination tupdesc might not reflect the same default. The typical
symptom was that the affected columns would be unexpectedly NULL.

Repair by always forcing conversion if the source has missing
attributes, which will be filled in by the deform operation. (In
theory we could optimize for when the destination has the same
default, but that seemed overkill.)

Backpatch to 11 where missing attributes were added.

stats printed by vacuum look very odd when they do.

We'd love to backpatch this, but refrain because the variables are

Commit 499be013 added this field in a rather poorly-thought-through
manner, with the result being that rather than being a field of the
Append or MergeAppend plan node as intended (and as it seems to be,
in text format), it was actually an element of the "Plans" subgroup.
At least in JSON format, that's flat out invalid syntax, because
"Plans" is an array not an object.

While it's not hard to move the generation of the field so that it
appears where it's supposed to, this does result in a visible change
in field order in text format, in cases where a Append or MergeAppend
plan node has any InitPlans attached.  That's slightly annoying to
do in stable branches; but the alternative of continuing to emit
broken non-text formats seems worse.

Also, since the set of fields emitted is not supposed to be
data-dependent in non-text formats, make sure that "Subplans Removed"
appears in Append and MergeAppend nodes even when it's zero, in those
formats.  (The previous coding made it look like it could appear in
some other node types such as BitmapAnd, but we don't actually support
runtime pruning there, so don't emit it in those cases.)

If we failed to fork a worker process, or create a communication pipe
for one, WaitForTerminatingWorkers would suffer an assertion failure
if assert-enabled, otherwise crash or go into an infinite loop.  This
was a consequence of not accounting for the startup condition where
we've not yet forked all the workers.

The original bug was that ParallelBackupStart would set workerStatus to
WRKR_IDLE before it had successfully forked a worker.  I made things
worse in commit b7b8cc0c by not understanding the undocumented fact
that the WRKR_TERMINATED state was also meant to represent the case
where a worker hadn't been started yet: I changed enum T_WorkerStatus
so that *all* the worker slots were initially in WRKR_IDLE state.  But
this wasn't any more broken in practice, since even one slot in the
wrong state would keep WaitForTerminatingWorkers from terminating.

In v10 and later, introduce an explicit T_WorkerStatus value for
worker-not-started, in hopes of preventing future oversights of the
same ilk.  Before that, just document that WRKR_TERMINATED is supposed
to cover that case (partly because it wasn't actively broken, and
partly because the enum is exposed outside parallel.c in those branches,
so there's microscopically more risk involved in changing it).
In all branches, introduce a WORKER_IS_RUNNING status test macro
to hide which T_WorkerStatus values mean that, and be more careful
not to access ParallelSlot fields till we're sure they're valid.

To implement this, tweak things so that setting DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR

only a few places needed to be adjusted.  Notably, the reference to
DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR in UNIXSOCK_PATH() could be removed because all

When running a lot of large parallel queries concurrently, or a plan with
a lot of separate Gather nodes, it is possible to run out of DSM slots.
There are better solutions to these problems requiring architectural
redesign work, but for now, let's adjust the constants so that it's more
difficult to hit the limit.

1.  Previously, a DSA area would create up to four segments at each size
before doubling the size.  After this commit, it will create only two at
each size, so it ramps up faster and therefore needs fewer slots.

2.  Previously, the total limit on DSM slots allowed for 2 per connection.
Switch to 5 per connection.

Advancing a physical replication slot with pg_replication_slot_advance()

As of commit 50fc694e, the plperl tests don't want preinstalled
plperl languages; they now install those themselves.  I'd removed the
--load-extension options from the GNUmakefile, but missed teaching
the MSVC build script about that.

Per buildfarm.

This patch creates a new extension property, "trusted".  An extension
that's marked that way in its control file can be installed by a
non-superuser who has the CREATE privilege on the current database,
even if the extension contains objects that normally would have to be
created by a superuser.  The objects within the extension will (by
default) be owned by the bootstrap superuser, but the extension itself
will be owned by the calling user.  This allows replicating the old
behavior around trusted procedural languages, without all the
special-case logic in CREATE LANGUAGE.  We have, however, chosen to
loosen the rules slightly: formerly, only a database owner could take
advantage of the special case that allowed installation of a trusted
language, but now anyone who has CREATE privilege can do so.

Having done that, we can delete the pg_pltemplate catalog, moving the
knowledge it contained into the extension script files for the various
PLs.  This ends up being no change at all for the in-core PLs, but it is
a large step forward for external PLs: they can now have the same ease
of installation as core PLs do.  The old "trusted PL" behavior was only
available to PLs that had entries in pg_pltemplate, but now any
extension can be marked trusted if appropriate.

This also removes one of the stumbling blocks for our Python 2 -> 3
migration, since the association of "plpythonu" with Python 2 is no
longer hard-wired into pg_pltemplate's initial contents.  Exactly where
we go from here on that front remains to be settled, but one problem
is fixed.

EvalPlanQualStart() supposed that it could re-use the relsubs_rowmark
and relsubs_done arrays from a prior instantiation.  But since they are
allocated in the es_query_cxt of the recheckestate, that's just wrong;
EvalPlanQualEnd() will blow away that storage.  Therefore we were using
storage that could have been reallocated to something else, causing all
sorts of havoc.

I think this was modeled on the old code's handling of es_epqTupleSlot,
but since the code was anyway clearing the arrays at re-use, there's
clearly no expectation of importing any outside state.  So it's just
a dubious savings of a couple of pallocs, which is negligible compared
to setting up a new planstate tree.  Therefore, just allocate the
arrays always.  (I moved the allocations slightly for readability.)

In principle this bug could cause a problem whenever EPQ rechecks are
needed in more than one target table of a ModifyTable plan node.
In practice it seems not quite so easy to trigger as that; I couldn't
readily duplicate a crash with a partitioned target table, for instance.
That's probably down to incidental choices about when to free or
reallocate stuff.  The added isolation test case does seem to reliably
show an assertion failure, though.
