Avoid spurious deadlocks when upgrading a tuple lock
When two (or more) transactions are waiting for transaction T1 to release a
tuple-level lock, and transaction T1 upgrades its lock to a higher level, a
spurious deadlock can be reported among the waiting transactions when T1
finishes. The simplest example case seems to be:
T1: select id from job where name = 'a' for key share;
Y: select id from job where name = 'a' for update; -- starts waiting for X
Z: select id from job where name = 'a' for key share;
T1: update job set name = 'b' where id = 1;
Z: update job set name = 'c' where id = 1; -- starts waiting for X
T1: rollback;
At this point, transaction Y is rolled back on account of a deadlock: Y
holds the heavyweight tuple lock and is waiting for the Xmax to be released,
while Z holds part of the multixact and tries to acquire the heavyweight
lock (per protocol) and goes to sleep; once X releases its part of the
multixact, Z is awakened only to be put back to sleep on the heavyweight
lock that Y is holding while sleeping. Kaboom.
This can be avoided by having Z skip the heavyweight lock acquisition. As
far as I can see, the biggest downside is that if there are multiple Z
transactions, the order in which they resume after X finishes is not
guaranteed.

Previously, in postgresPlanForeignModify, we planned an UPDATE operation

if there were BEFORE ROW UPDATE triggers on the foreign table, those

Fix ALTER COLUMN TYPE failure with a partial exclusion constraint.
ATExecAlterColumnType failed to consider the possibility that an index
that needs to be rebuilt might be a child of a constraint that needs to be
rebuilt. We missed this so far because usually a constraint index doesn't
have a direct dependency on its table, just on the constraint object.
But if there's a WHERE clause, then dependency analysis of the WHERE
clause results in direct dependencies on the column(s) mentioned in WHERE.
This led to trying to drop and rebuild both the constraint and its
underlying index.
In v11/HEAD, we successfully drop both the index and the constraint,
and then try to rebuild both, and of course the second rebuild hits a
duplicate-index-name problem. Before v11, it fails with obscure messages
about a missing relation OID, due to trying to drop the index twice.
This is essentially the same kind of problem noted in commit 20bef2c31: the possible dependency linkages are broader than what
ATExecAlterColumnType was designed for. It was probably OK when
written, but it's certainly been broken since the introduction of
partial exclusion constraints. Fix by adding an explicit check
for whether any of the indexes-to-be-rebuilt belong to any of the
constraints-to-be-rebuilt, and ignoring any that do.
In passing, fix a latent bug introduced by commit 8b08f7d48: in
get_constraint_index() we must "continue" not "break" when rejecting
a relation of a wrong relkind. This is harmless today because we don't
expect that code path to be taken anyway; but if there ever were any
relations to be ignored, the existing coding would have an extremely
undesirable dependency on the order of pg_depend entries.

Make pg_dump emit ATTACH PARTITION instead of PARTITION OF (reprise)

plperl.h fails to meet the expectation of being compilable standalone,

This is a mostly cosmetic change, it makes the life a little bit easier
for translators, as elog() messages are not translated. So backpatch to
PostgreSQL 10, where extended statistics were introduced.

In the pg_upgrade test suite, don't write to src/test/regress.
When this suite runs installcheck, redirect file creations from
src/test/regress to src/bin/pg_upgrade/tmp_check/regress. This closes a
race condition in "make -j check-world". If the pg_upgrade suite wrote
to a given src/test/regress/results file in parallel with the regular
src/test/regress invocation writing it, a test failed spuriously. Even
without parallelism, in "make -k check-world", the suite finishing
second overwrote the other's regression.diffs. This revealed test
"largeobject" assuming @abs_builddir@ is getcwd(), so fix that, too.
Buildfarm client REL_10, released fifty-four days ago, supports saving
regression.diffs from its new location. When an older client reports a
pg_upgradeCheck failure, it will no longer include regression.diffs.
Back-patch to 9.5, where pg_upgrade moved to src/bin.

This allows "vcregress upgradecheck" to pass twice in immediate

tableam: Rename wrapper functions to match callback names.
Some of the wrapper functions didn't match the callback names. Many of
them due to staying "consistent" with historic naming of the wrapped
functionality. We decided that for most cases it's more important to
be for tableam to be consistent going forward, than with the past.
The one exception is beginscan/endscan/... because it'd have looked
odd to have systable_beginscan/endscan/... with a different naming
scheme, and changing the systable_* APIs would have caused way too
much churn (including breaking a lot of external users).

Fix table dump in pg_dump[all] with backends older than 9.5
The access method name "amname" can be dumped as of 3b925e90, but
queries for backends older than 9.5 forgot to map it to a dummy NULL
value, causing the column to not be mapped to a number. As a result,
pg_dump was throwing some spurious errors in its stderr output coming
from libpq:
pg_dump: column number -1 is out of range 0..36
Fix this issue by adding a mapping of "amname" to NULL to all the older
queries.

pg_upgrade: Make test.sh's installcheck use to-be-upgraded version's bindir.
On master (after 700538) the old version's installed psql was used -
even when the old version might not actually be installed / might be
installed into a temporary directory. As commonly the case when just
executing make check for pg_upgrade, as $oldbindir is just the current
version's $bindir.
In the back branches, with --install specified, psql from the new
version's temporary installation was used, without --install (e.g for
NO_TEMP_INSTALL, cf 47b3c26642), the new version's installed psql was
used (which might or might not exist).

Fix array size allocation for HashAggregate hash keys.
When there were duplicate columns in the hash key list, the array
sizes could be miscomputed, resulting in access off the end of the
array. Adjust the computation to ensure the array is always large
enough.
(I considered whether the duplicates could be removed in planning, but
I can't rule out the possibility that duplicate columns might have
different hash functions assigned. Simpler to just make sure it works
at execution time regardless.)

Fix ordering of GRANT commands in pg_dumpall for tablespaces
This uses a method similar to 68a7c24f and now b8c6014 (applied for
database creation), which guarantees that GRANT commands using the WITH
GRANT OPTION are dumped in a way so as cascading dependencies are
respected. Note that tablespaces do not have support for initial
privileges via pg_init_privs, so the same method needs to be applied
again. It would be nice to merge all the logic generating ACL queries
in dumps under the same banner, but this requires extending the support
of pg_init_privs to objects that cannot use it yet, so this is left as
future work.
