There's no longer any reason to fire up a separate psql run
to create these functions. (Some refactoring in the main
regression tests is also called for, but that will take
more thought.)

The foreign data wrapper's validator function provides a HINT message with
list of valid options for the object specified in CREATE or ALTER command,
when the option given in the command is invalid. Previously
postgresql_fdw_validator() and the validator functions for postgres_fdw and
dblink_fdw worked in that way even there were no valid options in the object,
which could lead to the HINT message with empty list (because there were
no valid options). For example, ALTER FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER postgres_fdw
OPTIONS (format 'csv') reported the following ERROR and HINT messages.
This behavior was confusing.
ERROR: invalid option "format"
HINT: Valid options in this context are:
There is no such issue in file_fdw. The validator function for file_fdw
reports the HINT message "There are no valid options in this context."
instead in that case.
This commit improves postgresql_fdw_validator() and the validator functions
for postgres_fdw and dblink_fdw so that they do likewise. For example,
this change causes the above ALTER FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER command to
report the following messages.
ERROR: invalid option "nonexistent"
HINT: There are no valid options in this context.

This patch introduces INCLUDE clause to index definition. This clause
specifies a list of columns which will be included as a non-key part in
the index. The INCLUDE columns exist solely to allow more queries to
benefit from index-only scans. Also, such columns don't need to have
appropriate operator classes. Expressions are not supported as INCLUDE
columns since they cannot be used in index-only scans.
Index access methods supporting INCLUDE are indicated by amcaninclude flag
in IndexAmRoutine. For now, only B-tree indexes support INCLUDE clause.
In B-tree indexes INCLUDE columns are truncated from pivot index tuples
(tuples located in non-leaf pages and high keys). Therefore, B-tree indexes
now might have variable number of attributes. This patch also provides
generic facility to support that: pivot tuples contain number of their
attributes in t_tid.ip_posid. Free 13th bit of t_info is used for indicating
that. This facility will simplify further support of index suffix truncation.
The changes of above are backward-compatible, pg_upgrade doesn't need special
handling of B-tree indexes for that.

To ensure that "make installcheck" can be used safely against an existing
installation, we need to be careful about what global object names
(database, role, and tablespace names) we use; otherwise we might
accidentally clobber important objects. There's been a weak consensus that
test databases should have names including "regression", and that test role
names should start with "regress_", but we didn't have any particular rule
about tablespace names; and neither of the other rules was followed with
any consistency either.
This commit moves us a long way towards having a hard-and-fast rule that
regression test databases must have names including "regression", and that
test role and tablespace names must start with "regress_". It's not
completely there because I did not touch some test cases in rolenames.sql
that test creation of special role names like "session_user". That will
require some rethinking of exactly what we want to test, whereas the intent
of this patch is just to hit all the cases in which the needed renamings
are cosmetic.
There is no enforcement mechanism in this patch either, but if we don't
add one we can expect that the tests will soon be violating the convention
again. Again, that's not such a cosmetic change and it will require
discussion. (But I did use a quick-hack enforcement patch to find these
cases.)
Discussion: <16638.1468620817@sss.pgh.pa.us>
Remove the code in plpgsql that suppressed the innermost line of CONTEXT
for messages emitted by RAISE commands. That was never more than a quick
backwards-compatibility hack, and it's pretty silly in cases where the
RAISE is nested in several levels of function. What's more, it violated
our design theory that verbosity of error reports should be controlled
on the client side not the server side.
To alleviate the resulting noise increase, introduce a feature in libpq
and psql whereby the CONTEXT field of messages can be suppressed, either
always or only for non-error messages. Printing CONTEXT for errors only
is now their default behavior.
The actual code changes here are pretty small, but the effects on the
regression test outputs are widespread. I had to edit some of the
alternative expected outputs by hand; hopefully the buildfarm will soon
find anything I fat-fingered.
In passing, fix up (again) the output line counts in psql's various
help displays. Add some commentary about how to verify them.

That allows to run those tests against a postmaster listening on a
nonstandard port without requiring to export PGPORT in postmaster's
environment.
This still doesn't support connecting to a nondefault host without
configuring it in postmaster's environment. That's harder and less
frequently used though. So this is a useful step.
That allows parallel installcheck to succeed inside contrib/. The
output is not particularly pretty unless make's -O option to
synchronize the output is used.
There's other tests, outside contrib, that use a hardcoded,
non-unique, database name. Those prohibit paralell installcheck to be
used across more directories; but that's something for a separate
patch.
With OpenLDAP versions 2.4.24 through 2.4.31, inclusive, PostgreSQL
backends can crash at exit. Raise a warning during "configure" based on
the compile-time OpenLDAP version number, and test the crash scenario in
the dblink test suite. Back-patch to 9.0 (all supported versions).
Give passwords to each user created in support of an ECPG connection
test case. Use SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION, not a fresh connection, to
reduce privileges during a dblink test case.
To test against such a server, both the "make installcheck-world"
environment and the postmaster environment must provide the default
user's password; $PGPASSFILE is the principal way to do so. (The
postmaster environment needs it for dblink and postgres_fdw tests.)
If the remote database's settings of these GUCs are different from ours,
ambiguous datetime values may be read incorrectly. To fix, temporarily
adopt the remote server's settings while we ingest a query result.
This is not a complete fix, since it doesn't do anything about ambiguous
values in commands sent to the remote server; but there seems little we
can do about that end of it given dblink's entirely textual API for
transmitted commands.
Back-patch to 9.2. The hazard exists in all versions, but this patch
would need more work to apply before 9.2. Given the lack of field
complaints about this issue, it doesn't seem worth the effort at present.

The HINTs generated for these error cases vary across builds. We
could try to work around that, but the test cases aren't really useful
enough to justify taking any trouble.
Per buildfarm.
dblink now has its own validator function dblink_fdw_validator(), which is
better than the core function postgresql_fdw_validator() because it gets
the list of legal options from libpq instead of having a hard-wired list.
Make the dblink extension module provide a standard foreign data wrapper
dblink_fdw that encapsulates use of this validator, and recommend use of
that wrapper instead of making up wrappers on the fly.
Unfortunately, because ad-hoc wrappers *were* recommended practice
previously, it's not clear when we can get rid of postgresql_fdw_validator
without causing upgrade problems. But this is a step in the right
direction.

now vary between little-endian and big-endian machines; which forces us
to add explicit ORDER BYs in a couple of regression tests to preserve
machine-independent comparison results. Also, force initdb by bumping

big-endian machines).
