Add readfuncs.c support for plan nodes.
For parallel query, we need to be able to pass a Plan to a worker, so
that it knows what it's supposed to do. We could invent our own way
of serializing plans for that purpose, but piggybacking on the
existing node infrastructure seems like a much better idea.
Initially, we'll probably only support a limited number of nodes
within parallel workers, but this commit adds support for everything
in plannodes.h except CustomScan, because doing it all at once seems
easier than doing it piecemeal, and it makes testing this code easier,
too. CustomScan is excluded because making that work requires a
larger rework of that facility.

Glue layer to connect the executor to the shm_mq mechanism.
The shm_mq mechanism was built to send error (and notice) messages and
tuples between backends. However, shm_mq itself only deals in raw
bytes. Since commit 2bd9e412f92bc6a68f3e8bcb18e04955cc35001d, we have
had infrastructure for one message to redirect protocol messages to a
queue and for another backend to parse them and do useful things with
them. This commit introduces a somewhat analogous facility for tuples
by adding a new type of DestReceiver, DestTupleQueue, which writes
each tuple generated by a query into a shm_mq, and a new
TupleQueueFunnel facility which reads raw tuples out of the queue and
reconstructs the HeapTuple format expected by the executor.
The TupleQueueFunnel abstraction supports reading from multiple tuple
streams at the same time, but only in round-robin fashion. Someone
could imaginably want other policies, but this should be good enough
to meet our short-term needs related to parallel query, and we can
always extend it later.

seem worth breaking out as a separate patch.

Determine whether it's safe to attempt a parallel plan for a query.
Commit 924bcf4f16d54c55310b28f77686608684734f42 introduced a framework
for parallel computation in PostgreSQL that makes most but not all
built-in functions safe to execute in parallel mode. In order to have
parallel query, we'll need to be able to determine whether that query
contains functions (either built-in or user-defined) that cannot be
safely executed in parallel mode. This requires those functions to be
labeled, so this patch introduces an infrastructure for that. Some
functions currently labeled as safe may need to be revised depending on
how pending issues related to heavyweight locking under paralllelism
are resolved.
Parallel plans can't be used except for the case where the query will
run to completion. If portal execution were suspended, the parallel
mode restrictions would need to remain in effect during that time, but
that might make other queries fail. Therefore, this patch introduces
a framework that enables consideration of parallel plans only when it
is known that the plan will be run to completion. This probably needs
some refinement; for example, at bind time, we do not know whether a
query run via the extended protocol will be execution to completion or
run with a limited fetch count. Having the client indicate its
intentions at bind time would constitute a wire protocol break. Some
contexts in which parallel mode would be safe are not adjusted by this
patch; the default is not to try parallel plans except from call sites
that have been updated to say that such plans are OK.
This commit doesn't introduce any parallel paths or plans; it just
provides a way to determine whether they could potentially be used.
I'm committing it on the theory that the remaining parallel sequential
scan patches will also get committed to this release, hopefully in the
not-too-distant future.

Fix subtransaction cleanup after an outer-subtransaction portal fails.
Formerly, we treated only portals created in the current subtransaction as
having failed during subtransaction abort. However, if the error occurred
while running a portal created in an outer subtransaction (ie, a cursor
declared before the last savepoint), that has to be considered broken too.
To allow reliable detection of which ones those are, add a bookkeeping
field to struct Portal that tracks the innermost subtransaction in which
each portal has actually been executed. (Without this, we'd end up
failing portals containing functions that had called the subtransaction,
thereby breaking plpgsql exception blocks completely.)
In addition, when we fail an outer-subtransaction Portal, transfer its
resources into the subtransaction's resource owner, so that they're
released early in cleanup of the subxact. This fixes a problem reported by
Jim Nasby in which a function executed in an outer-subtransaction cursor
could cause an Assert failure or crash by referencing a relation created
within the inner subtransaction.
The proximate cause of the Assert failure is that AtEOSubXact_RelationCache
assumed it could blow away a relcache entry without first checking that the
entry had zero refcount. That was a bad idea on its own terms, so add such
a check there, and to the similar coding in AtEOXact_RelationCache. This

Some googling turned up multiple sources saying that older versions of icc
do not accept gcc-compatible asm blocks on IA64, though asm does work on
x86[_64]. This is apparently fixed as of icc version 12.0 or so, but that
doesn't help us much; if we have to carry the extra implementation anyway,
we may as well just use it for icc rather than add a compiler version test.
Hence, revert commit 2c713d6ea29c91cd2cbd92fa801a61e55ea2a3c4 (though I
separated the icc code from the gcc code completely, producing what seems
cleaner code). Document the state of affairs more explicitly, both in
s_lock.h and postgres.c, and make some cosmetic adjustments around the
IA64 code in s_lock.h.
