Change ParseConfigFp() so that it doesn't process unused entry of each parameter.
When more than one setting entries of same parameter exist in the
configuration file, PostgreSQL uses only entry appearing last in
configuration file scan. Since the other entries are not used,
ParseConfigFp() doesn't need to process them, but previously it did
that. This problematic behavior caused the configuration file scan
to detect invalid settings of unused entries (e.g., existence of
multiple entries of PGC_POSTMASTER parameter) and log the messages
complaining about them.
This commit changes the configuration file scan so that it processes
only last entry of each parameter.

Avoid uselessly looking up old LOCK_ONLY multixacts
Commit 0ac5ad5134f2 removed an optimization in multixact.c that skipped
fetching members of MultiXactId that were older than our
OldestVisibleMXactId value. The reason this was removed is that it is
possible for multixacts that contain updates to be older than that
value. However, if the caller is certain that the multi does not
contain an update (because the infomask bits say so), it can pass this
info down to GetMultiXactIdMembers, enabling it to use the old
optimization.
Pointed out by Andres Freund in 20131121200517.GM7240@alap2.anarazel.de
Testing for abortedness of a multixact member that's being frozen is

progress or committed to determine whether it must be kept or not. This
let us simplify the code a bit and avoid a useless TransactionIdDidAbort
test.
Treat 2PC commit/abort the same as regular xacts in recovery.
There were several oversights in recovery code where COMMIT/ABORT PREPARED

* pg_last_xact_replay_timestamp() (wasn't updated for 2PC commits)
* recovery_min_apply_delay (2PC commits were applied immediately)
* recovery_target_xid (recovery would not stop if the XID used 2PC)

Defend against bad relfrozenxid/relminmxid/datfrozenxid/datminmxid values.
In commit a61daa14d56867e90dc011bbba52ef771cea6770, we fixed pg_upgrade so
that it would install sane relminmxid and datminmxid values, but that does
not cure the problem for installations that were already pg_upgraded to
9.3; they'll initially have "1" in those fields. This is not a big problem
so long as 1 is "in the past" compared to the current nextMultiXact
counter. But if an installation were more than halfway to the MXID wrap
point at the time of upgrade, 1 would appear to be "in the future" and
that would effectively disable tracking of oldest MXIDs in those
tables/databases, until such time as the counter wrapped around.
While in itself this isn't worse than the situation pre-9.3, where we did
not manage MXID wraparound risk at all, the consequences of premature
truncation of pg_multixact are worse now; so we ought to make some effort
to cope with this. We discussed advising users to fix the tracking values
manually, but that seems both very tedious and very error-prone.
Instead, this patch adopts two amelioration rules. First, a relminmxid
value that is "in the future" is allowed to be overwritten with a
full-table VACUUM's actual freeze cutoff, ignoring the normal rule that
relminmxid should never go backwards. (This essentially assumes that we
have enough defenses in place that wraparound can never occur anymore,
and thus that a value "in the future" must be corrupt.) Second, if we see
any "in the future" values then we refrain from truncating pg_clog and
pg_multixact. This prevents loss of clog data until we have cleaned up
all the broken tracking data. In the worst case that could result in
considerable clog bloat, but in practice we expect that relfrozenxid-driven
freezing will happen soon enough to fix the problem before clog bloat
becomes intolerable. (Users could do manual VACUUM FREEZEs if not.)
Note that this mechanism cannot save us if there are already-wrapped or
already-truncated-away MXIDs in the table; it's only capable of dealing
with corrupt tracking values. But that's the situation we have with the
pg_upgrade bug.
For consistency, apply the same rules to relfrozenxid/datfrozenxid. There
are not known mechanisms for these to get messed up, but if they were, the
same tactics seem appropriate for fixing them.

Partial fix for dropped columns in functions returning composite.
When a view has a function-returning-composite in FROM, and there are
some dropped columns in the underlying composite type, ruleutils.c
printed junk in the column alias list for the reconstructed FROM entry.
Before 9.3, this was prevented by doing get_rte_attribute_is_dropped
tests while printing the column alias list; but that solution is not
currently available to us for reasons I'll explain below. Instead,
check for empty-string entries in the alias list, which can only exist
if that column position had been dropped at the time the view was made.
(The parser fills in empty strings to preserve the invariant that the
aliases correspond to physical column positions.)
While this is sufficient to handle the case of columns dropped before
the view was made, we have still got issues with columns dropped after
the view was made. In particular, the view could contain Vars that
explicitly reference such columns! The dependency machinery really
ought to refuse the column drop attempt in such cases, as it would do
when trying to drop a table column that's explicitly referenced in
views. However, we currently neglect to store dependencies on columns
of composite types, and fixing that is likely to be too big to be
back-patchable (not to mention that existing views in existing databases
would not have the needed pg_depend entries anyway). So I'll leave that
for a separate patch.
Pre-9.3, ruleutils would print such Vars normally (with their original
column names) even though it suppressed their entries in the RTE's
column alias list. This is certainly bogus, since the printed view
definition would fail to reload, but at least it didn't crash. However,
as of 9.3 the printed column alias list is tightly tied to the names
printed for Vars; so we can't treat columns as dropped for one purpose
and not dropped for the other. This is why we can't just put back the
get_rte_attribute_is_dropped test: it results in an assertion failure
if the view in fact contains any Vars referencing the dropped column.
Once we've got dependencies preventing such cases, we'll probably want
to do it that way instead of relying on the empty-string test used here.
This fix turned up a very ancient bug in outfuncs/readfuncs, namely
that T_String nodes containing empty strings were not dumped/reloaded
correctly: the node was printed as "<>" which is read as a string
value of <>. Since (per SQL) we disallow empty-string identifiers,
such nodes don't occur normally, which is why we'd not noticed.
(Such nodes aren't used for literal constants, just identifiers.)

the argument's upper bound against the centroid's lower bound (the comment
was correct, code was wrong). Also, it cleared bits in the "which1"
variable, while it was supposed to clear bits in "which2".
* If the argument's upper bound was equal to the centroid's lower bound, we
descended to both halves (= all quadrants). That's unnecessary, searching
the right quadrants is sufficient. This didn't lead to incorrect query
results, but was clearly wrong, and slowed down queries unnecessarily.
* In the case that argument's lower bound is adjacent to the centroid's
upper bound, we also don't need to visit all quadrants. Per similar
reasoning as previous point.
* The code where we compare the previous centroid with the current centroid
should match the code where we compare the current centroid with the
argument. The point of that code is to redo the calculation done in the
previous level, to see if we were supposed to traverse left or right (or up
or down), and if we actually did. If we moved in the different direction,

Commit 1b86c81d2d fixed the decoding of toasted columns for the rows
contained in one xl_heap_multi_insert record. But that's not actually
enough, because heap_multi_insert() will actually first toast all
passed in rows and then emit several *_multi_insert records; one for
each page it fills with tuples.
Add a XLOG_HEAP_LAST_MULTI_INSERT flag which is set in
xl_heap_multi_insert->flag denoting that this multi_insert record is
the last emitted by one heap_multi_insert() call. Then use that flag
in decode.c to only set clear_toast_afterwards in the right situation.
Expand the number of rows inserted via COPY in the corresponding
regression test to make sure that more than one heap page is filled
with tuples by one heap_multi_insert() call.

Fix bug with whole-row references to append subplans.
ExecEvalWholeRowVar incorrectly supposed that it could "bless" the source
TupleTableSlot just once per query. But if the input is coming from an
Append (or, perhaps, other cases?) more than one slot might be returned
over the query run. This led to "record type has not been registered"
errors when a composite datum was extracted from a non-blessed slot.
This bug has been there a long time; I guess it escaped notice because when
dealing with subqueries the planner tends to expand whole-row Vars into
RowExprs, which don't have the same problem. It is possible to trigger
the problem in all active branches, though, as illustrated by the added
regression test.

Implement IMPORT FOREIGN SCHEMA.
This command provides an automated way to create foreign table definitions
that match remote tables, thereby reducing tedium and chances for error.
In this patch, we provide the necessary core-server infrastructure and
implement the feature fully in the postgres_fdw foreign-data wrapper.
Other wrappers will throw a "feature not supported" error until/unless
they are updated.

Add new ECHO mode 'errors' that displays only failed commands in psql.
When the psql variable ECHO is set to 'erros', only failed SQL commands
are printed to standard error output. Also this patch adds -b option into psql.
This is equivalent to setting the variable ECHO to 'errors'.
