Commit 1f39bce021 added disk-based hash aggregation, which may spill
incoming tuples to disk. It however did not request projection to make
the tuples as narrow as possible, which may mean having to spill much
more data than necessary (increasing I/O, pushing other stuff from page
cache, etc.).
This adds CP_SMALL_TLIST in places that may use hash aggregation - we do
that only for AGG_HASHED. It's unnecessary for AGG_SORTED, because that
either uses explicit Sort (which already does projection) or pre-sorted
input (which does not need spilling to disk).

This commit updates the "Viewing Statistics" section more like
the existing catalogs chapter.
- Change its layout so that an introductory paragrap is put above
the table for each statistics view. Previously the explanations
were below the tables.
- Separate each view to different section and add index terms for them.

The repeat() function loops for potentially a long time without
ever checking for interrupts. This prevents, for example, a query
cancel from interrupting until the work is all done. Fix by
inserting a CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() into the loop.

Disk-based HashAgg relies on writing to multiple tapes
concurrently. Avoid fragmentation of the tapes' blocks by
preallocating many blocks for a tape at once. No file operations are
performed during preallocation; only the block numbers are reserved.

Whther track_io_timing is enabled affects also blk_read_time and

The B-Tree index deduplication strategy used during CREATE INDEX and
REINDEX differs from the lazy strategy used by retail inserts. Make
that clear by adding a new paragraph to the B-Tree implementation
section of the documentation.
In passing, do some copy-editing of nearby deduplication documentation.
When installing binaries and libraries using the MSVC installation
routines, the operation gets done after moving to the root folder, whose
location is detected by checking if "configure" exists two times in a
row. So, calling the installation script from src/tools/msvc/ with an
extra "configure" file four levels up the root path of the code tree
causes the execution to go further up, leading to a failure in finding
the builds. This commit fixes the issue by moving to the root folder of
the code tree only once, when necessary.

This should be plain old ColId. Making it so makes the grammar less
complicated, and makes the compiled tables a kilobyte or so smaller
(likely because they don't have to deal with a keyword classification
that's not used anyplace else).
Commit 624686abcf added an assertion that verified that _bt_search
successfully relocated the leaf page undergoing deletion. Page deletion
cannot deal with the case where the descent stack is to the right of the
page, so this seemed critical (deletion can only handle the case where
the descent stack is to the left of the leaf/target page). However, the
assertion went a bit too far.
Since only a buffer pin is held on the leaf page throughout the call to
_bt_search, nothing guarantees that it can't have split during this
small window. And if does actually split, _bt_search may end up
"relocating" a page to the right of the original target leaf page. This
scenario seems extremely unlikely, but it must still be considered.
Remove the assertion, and document how we cope in this scenario.
Make number of translate_columns elements match the number of output columns.
The only "true" value, which was previously specified, seems to be intended
for opfamily operator "purpose" column. But that column has already translated
values substituted. So, all elements in translate_columns[] should be "false".
This commit changes ORDER BY clause for \dAo and \dAp psql commands in
the following way.
* Operators for the same types are grouped together.
* Same-class operators and procedures are listed before cross-class operators
and procedures.
Modification of ORDER BY clause for \dAp required removing DISTINCT clause,
which doesn't seem to affect anything.

it doesn't belong under IO.
