ICU support
Add a column collprovider to pg_collation that determines which library
provides the collation data. The existing choices are default and libc,
and this adds an icu choice, which uses the ICU4C library.
The pg_locale_t type is changed to a union that contains the
provider-specific locale handles. Users of locale information are
changed to look into that struct for the appropriate handle to use.
Also add a collversion column that records the version of the collation
when it is created, and check at run time whether it is still the same.
This detects potentially incompatible library upgrades that can corrupt
indexes and other structures. This is currently only supported by
ICU-provided collations.
initdb initializes the default collation set as before from the `locale
-a` output but also adds all available ICU locales with a "-x-icu"
appended.
Currently, ICU-provided collations can only be explicitly named
collations. The global database locales are still always libc-provided.
ICU support is enabled by configure --with-icu.

Allow for parallel execution whenever ExecutorRun() is done only once.
Previously, it was unsafe to execute a plan in parallel if
ExecutorRun() might be called with a non-zero row count. However,
it's quite easy to fix things up so that we can support that case,
provided that it is known that we will never call ExecutorRun() a
second time for the same QueryDesc. Add infrastructure to signal
this, and cross-checks to make sure that a caller who claims this is
true doesn't later reneg.
While that pattern never happens with queries received directly from a
client -- there's no way to know whether multiple Execute messages
will be sent unless the first one requests all the rows -- it's pretty
common for queries originating from procedural languages, which often
limit the result to a single tuple or to a user-specified number of
tuples.
This commit doesn't actually enable parallelism in any additional
cases, because currently none of the places that would be able to
benefit from this infrastructure pass CURSOR_OPT_PARALLEL_OK in the
first place, but it makes it much more palatable to pass
CURSOR_OPT_PARALLEL_OK in places where we currently don't, because it
eliminates some cases where we'd end up having to run the parallel

Replication lag tracking for walsenders
Adds write_lag, flush_lag and replay_lag cols to pg_stat_replication.
Implements a lag tracker module that reports the lag times based upon
measurements of the time taken for recent WAL to be written, flushed and
replayed and for the sender to hear about it. These times
represent the commit lag that was (or would have been) introduced by each
synchronous commit level, if the remote server was configured as a
synchronous standby. For an asynchronous standby, the replay_lag column
approximates the delay before recent transactions became visible to queries.
If the standby server has entirely caught up with the sending server and
there is no more WAL activity, the most recently measured lag times will
continue to be displayed for a short time and then show NULL.
Physical replication lag tracking is automatic. Logical replication tracking
is possible but is the responsibility of the logical decoding plugin.
Tracking is a private module operating within each walsender individually,
with values reported to shared memory. Module not used outside of walsender.

- Text search configuration, templates, parsers, dictionaries
- FDWs, servers, foreign tables
- Materialized views
- Improved Publications / Subscriptions test (though this needs work,

- Unlogged tables
- Partitioned tables
- Additional ACL testing for various object types

- Various type-based option (alignment, storage, etc)
- Composite type collation
- Extra Procedural language functions (inline, validator)
- Different function options (SRF, Transform, config, security definer,
cost, leakproof)
- OpClass options (default, storage, order by, recheck)
- OpFamily options (order by, recheck)
- Aggregate functions (combinefunc, serialfunc, deserialfunc, etc)
- Text Search parser 'headline'
- Text Search template 'init'
- FDW options (handler, validator, options)
- Server options (type, version, options)
- User mapping options
- Default ACLs for sequences, types
- Security labels
- View circular dependencies (last function that needs coverage)
- Toast table autovacuum options
- Replica identity options
- Independent indexes (plus marking them as clustered on)
- Deferrable / initially deferred constraints
- Independent domain constraints
There's bits of extension pg_dump'ing also not covered, but those will
need to go into test_pg_dump (such as having a filter for config

doc: Fix TOC generation for refentries
The XSLT stylesheets by default don't show refentries inside sections in
table of contents, which for our documentation leads to some regressions
compared to the DSSSL output. For example, in the SPI chapter, which is
mostly refentries, you don't get any usable table of contents. Tweak
things so it's mostly back to what it was before.
