fd791e7b5a When a relation has been proven empty by constraint exclusion, propagate that
knowledge up through any joins it participates in.  We were doing that already
in some special cases but not in the general case.  Also, defend against zero
row estimates for the input relations in cost_mergejoin --- this fix may have
eliminated the only scenario in which that can happen, but be safe.  Per
report from Alex Solovey.

2a346725ba Use new errdetail_log() mechanism to provide a less klugy way of reporting
large numbers of dependencies on a role that couldn't be dropped.

32b58d0220 Fix various infelicities that have snuck into usage of errdetail() and
friends.  Avoid double translation of some messages, ensure other messages
are exposed for translation (and make them follow the style guidelines),
avoid unsafe passing of an unpredictable message text as a format string.

9b8e1eb375 Adjust the recent patch for reporting of deadlocked queries so that we report
query texts only to the server log.  This eliminates the issue of possible
leaking of security-sensitive data in other sessions' queries.  Since the
log is presumed secure, we can now log the queries of all sessions involved
in the deadlock, whether or not they belong to the same user as the one
reporting the failure.

05fc744b96 Add a new ereport auxiliary function errdetail_log(), which works the same as
errdetail except the string goes only to the server log, replacing the normal
errdetail there.  This provides a reasonably clean way of dealing with error
details that are too security-sensitive or too bulky to send to the client.

This commit just adds the infrastructure --- actual uses to follow.

7de81124d5 Create a function quote_nullable(), which works the same as quote_literal()
except that it returns the string 'NULL', rather than a SQL null, when called
with a null argument.  This is often a much more useful behavior for
constructing dynamic queries.  Add more discussion to the documentation
about how to use these functions.

  creation of triggers or rules for INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE, and constraints
  for rapid partition selection.  Options could include range and hash
  partition selection.
