Avoid unconditionally filling in missing values with NULL in pgoutput.

were incorrectly filled in with NULL. The problem was the use of
CreateTupleDescCopy where CreateTupleDescCopyConstr was required, as the
former drops the constraints in the tuple description (specifically, the
default value constraint) on the floor.
The bug could result in incorrectness when a table replicated via
`REPLICA IDENTITY FULL` underwent a schema change that added a column

values in old tuples for missing columns for default values. Then on the
subscriber, we failed to find a matching tuple and missed updating the

Track statement entry timestamp in contrib/pg_stat_statements
This patch adds 'stats_since' and 'minmax_stats_since' columns to the
pg_stat_statements view and pg_stat_statements() function. The new min/max
reset mode for the pg_stat_stetments_reset() function is controlled by the
parameter minmax_only.
'stat_since' column is populated with the current timestamp when a new
statement is added to the pg_stat_statements hashtable. It provides clean
information about statistics collection time intervals for each statement.
Besides it can be used by sampling solutions to detect situations when a
statement was evicted and stored again between samples.
Such a sampling solution could derive any pg_stat_statements statistic values
for an interval between two samples with the exception of all min/max
statistics. To address this issue this patch adds the ability to reset
min/max statistics independently of the statement reset using the new
minmax_only parameter of the pg_stat_statements_reset(userid oid, dbid oid,
queryid bigint, minmax_only boolean) function. The timestamp of such reset
is stored in the minmax_stats_since field for each statement.
pg_stat_statements_reset() function now returns the timestamp of a reset as the
result.

Fix timing-dependent failure in GSSAPI data transmission.
When using GSSAPI encryption in non-blocking mode, libpq sometimes
failed with "GSSAPI caller failed to retransmit all data needing
to be retried". The cause is that pqPutMsgEnd rounds its transmit
request down to an even multiple of 8K, and sometimes that can lead
to not requesting a write of data that was requested to be written
(but reported as not written) earlier. That can upset pg_GSS_write's
logic for dealing with not-yet-written data, since it's possible
the data in question had already been incorporated into an encrypted
packet that we weren't able to send during the previous call.
We could fix this with a one-or-two-line hack to disable pqPutMsgEnd's
round-down behavior, but that seems like making the caller work around
a behavior that pg_GSS_write shouldn't expose in this way. Instead,
adjust pg_GSS_write to never report a partial write: it either
reports a complete write, or reflects the failure of the lower-level
pqsecure_raw_write call. The requirement still exists for the caller
to present at least as much data as on the previous call, but with
the caller-visible write start point not moving there is no temptation
for it to present less. We lose some ability to reclaim buffer space
early, but I doubt that that will make much difference in practice.
This also gets rid of a rather dubious assumption that "any
interesting failure condition (from pqsecure_raw_write) will recur
on the next try". We've not seen failure reports traceable to that,
but I've never trusted it particularly and am glad to remove it.
Make the same adjustments to the equivalent backend routine
be_gssapi_write(). It is probable that there's no bug on the backend
side, since we don't have a notion of nonblock mode there; but we
should keep the logic the same to ease future maintenance.

Log messages for replication slot acquisition and release.
This commit log messages (at LOG level when log_replication_commands is
set, otherwise at DEBUG1 level) when walsenders acquire and release
replication slots. These messages help to know the lifetime of a
replication slot - one can know how long a streaming standby, logical
subscriber, or replication slot consumer is down. These messages will be
useful on production servers to debug and analyze inactive replication
slots.
Note that these messages are emitted only for walsenders but not for
backends. This is because walsenders are the ones that typically hold
replication slots for longer durations, unlike backends which hold them
for executing replication related functions.

Release lock on heap buffer before vacuuming FSM

vacuum the freespace map. This was done while unnecessarily holding a

FreeSpaceMapVacuumRange() and, while we're at it, ensure the range
includes the heap block we just vacuumed.

Extract column statistics from CTE references, if possible.
examine_simple_variable() left this as an unimplemented case years
ago, with the result that plans for queries involving un-flattened
CTEs might be much stupider than necessary. It's not hard to extend
the existing logic for RTE_SUBQUERY cases to also be able to drill
down into CTEs, so let's do that.
There was some discussion of whether this patch breaks the idea
of a MATERIALIZED CTE being an optimization fence. We concluded
it's okay, because we already allow the outer planner level to
see the estimated width and rowcount of the CTE result, and
letting it see column statistics too seems fairly equivalent.
Basically, what we expect of the optimization fence is that the
outer query should not affect the plan chosen for the CTE query.
Once that plan is chosen, it's okay for the outer planner level
to make use of whatever information we have about it.

Ensure we preprocess expressions before checking their volatility.
contain_mutable_functions and contain_volatile_functions give
reliable answers only after expression preprocessing (specifically
eval_const_expressions). Some places understand this, but some did
not get the memo --- which is not entirely their fault, because the
problem is documented only in places far away from those functions.
Introduce wrapper functions that allow doing the right thing easily,
and add commentary in hopes of preventing future mistakes from
copy-and-paste of code that's only conditionally safe.
Two actual bugs of this ilk are fixed here. We failed to preprocess
column GENERATED expressions before checking mutability, so that the
code could fail to detect the use of a volatile function
default-argument expression, or it could reject a polymorphic function
that is actually immutable on the datatype of interest. Likewise,
column DEFAULT expressions weren't preprocessed before determining if
it's safe to apply the attmissingval mechanism. A false negative
would just result in an unnecessary table rewrite, but a false
positive could allow the attmissingval mechanism to be used in a case
where it should not be, resulting in unexpected initial values in a
new column.
In passing, re-order the steps in ComputePartitionAttrs so that its
checks for invalid column references are done before applying
expression_planner, rather than after. The previous coding would
not complain if a partition expression contains a disallowed column
reference that gets optimized away by constant folding, which seems
to me to be a behavior we do not want.
