Before this commit, when multixid wraparound happens,
MultiXactState->nextMXact goes to 0, which is invalid. All the readers
need to deal with that possibility and skip over the 0. That's
error-prone and we've missed it a few times in the past. This commit
changes the responsibility so that all the writers of
MultiXactState->nextMXact skip over the zero already, and readers can
trust that it's never 0.
We were already doing that for MultiXactState->oldestMultiXactId; none
of its writers would set it to 0. ReadMultiXactIdRange() was
nevertheless checking for that possibility. For clarity, remove that
check.

The fix for concurrent index operations in bc32a12e0d started
considering indexes that are not yet marked indisvalid as arbiters for
INSERT ON CONFLICT. For partitioned tables, this leads to including
indexes that may not exist in partitions, causing a trivially
reproducible "invalid arbiter index list" error to be thrown because of
failure to match the index. To fix, it suffices to ignore !indisvalid
indexes on partitioned tables. There should be no risk that the set of
indexes will change for concurrent transactions, because in order for
such an index to be marked valid, an ALTER INDEX ATTACH PARTITION must
run which requires AccessExclusiveLock.

Previously, c.h made <assert.h> only available in frontends (#ifdef
FRONTEND), which was probably reasonable, because the only thing it
would give you is assert(), which you generally shouldn't use in the
backend. But with C11, <assert.h> also makes available
static_assert(), which would be useful everywhere. So this patch
moves <assert.h> to the commonly available header files in c.h and
fixes a small complication in regcustom.h that resulted from that.

Previously, during a promotion, only the slot synchronization worker was
signaled to shut down. The backend executing slot synchronization via the
pg_sync_replication_slots() SQL function was not signaled, allowing it to
complete its synchronization cycle before exiting.
An upcoming patch improves pg_sync_replication_slots() to wait until
replication slots are fully persisted before finishing. This behaviour
requires the backend to exit promptly if a promotion occurs.
This patch ensures that, during promotion, a signal is also sent to the
backend running pg_sync_replication_slots(), allowing it to be interrupted
and exit immediately.

Although clang claims to be compatible with gcc's printf format
archetypes, this appears to be a falsehood: it likes __syslog__
(which gcc does not, on most platforms) and doesn't accept
gnu_printf. This means that if you try to use gcc with clang++
or clang with g++, you get compiler warnings when compiling
printf-like calls in our C++ code. This has been true for quite
awhile, but it's gotten more annoying with the recent appearance
of several buildfarm members that are configured like this.
To fix, run separate probes for the format archetype to use with the
C and C++ compilers, and conditionally define PG_PRINTF_ATTRIBUTE
depending on __cplusplus.
(We could alternatively insist that you not mix-and-match C and
C++ compilers; but if the case works otherwise, this is a poor
reason to insist on that.)
No back-patch for now, but we may want to do that if this
patch survives buildfarm testing.

Always return TIDs in descending order when returning groups of TIDs
from an nbtree posting list tuple during nbtree backwards scans. This
makes backwards scans tend to require fewer buffer hits, since the scan
is less likely to repeatedly pin and unpin the same heap page/buffer
(we'll get exactly as many buffer hits as we get with a similar forwards
scan case).
Commit 0d861bbb, which added nbtree deduplication, originally did things
this way to avoid interfering with _bt_killitems's approach to setting
LP_DEAD bits on posting list tuples. _bt_killitems makes a soft
assumption that it can always iterate through posting lists in ascending
TID order, finding corresponding killItems[]/so->currPos.items[] entries
in that same order. This worked out because of the prior _bt_readpage
backwards scan behavior. If we just changed the backwards scan posting
list logic in _bt_readpage, without altering _bt_killitems itself, it
would break its soft assumption.
Avoid that problem by sorting the so->killedItems[] array at the start
of _bt_killitems. That way the order that dead items are saved in from
btgettuple can't matter; so->killedItems[] will always be in the same
order as so->currPos.items[] in the end. Since so->currPos.items[] is
now always in leaf page order, regardless of the scan direction used
within _bt_readpage, and since so->killedItems[] is always in that same
order, the _bt_killitems loop can continue to make a uniform assumption
about everything being in page order. In fact, sorting like this makes
the previous soft assumption about item order into a hard invariant.
Also deduplicate the so->killedItems[] array after it is sorted. That
way there's no risk of the _bt_killitems loop becoming confused by a
duplicate dead item/TID. This was possible in cases that involved a
scrollable cursor that encountered the same dead TID more than once
(within the same leaf page/so->currPos context). This doesn't come up
very much in practice, but it seems best to be as consistent as possible
about how and when _bt_killitems will LP_DEAD-mark index tuples.

The test seemed to incorrectly think that query_safe() takes an
argument that describes what the query does, similar to e.g.
command_ok(). Until commit bd8d9c9bdf the extra arguments were
harmless and were just ignored, but when commit bd8d9c9bdf introduced
a new optional argument to query_safe(), the extra arguments started
clashing with that, causing the test to fail.
Backpatch to v17, that's the oldest branch where the test exists. The
extra arguments didn't cause any trouble on the older branches, but
they were clearly bogus anyway.
Phase I vacuum gives the page a once-over after pruning and freezing to
check that the values of all_visible and all_frozen agree with the
result of heap_page_is_all_visible(). This is meant to keep the logic in
phase I for determining visibility in sync with the logic in phase III.

Buildfarm members skimmer and crake have reported that pg_upgrade
running from v18 fails due to the changes of d52c24b0f8, with the
expectations that the objects removed in the test module
injection_points should still be present post upgrades, but the test
module does not have them anymore.
The origin of the issue is that the following test modules depend on
injection_points, but they do not drop the extension once the tests
finish, leaving its traces in the dumps used for the upgrades:
- gin, down to v17
- typcache, down to v18
- nbtree, HEAD-only
Test modules have no upgrade requirements, as they are used only for..
Tests, so there is no point in keeping them around.
An alternative solution would be to drop the databases created by these
modules in AdjustUpgrade.pm, but the solution of this commit to drop the
extension is simpler. Note that there would be a catch if using a
solution based on AdjustUpgrade.pm as the database name used for the
test runs differs between configure and meson:
- configure relies on USE_MODULE_DB for the database name unicity, that
would build a database name based on the *first* entry of REGRESS, that
lists all the SQL tests.
- meson relies on a "name" field.
For example, for the test module "gin", the regression database is named
"regression_gin" under meson, while it is more complex for configure, as
of "contrib_regression_gin_incomplete_splits". So a AdjustUpgrade.pm
would need a set of DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS to solve this issue, to cope
with each build system.
The failure has been caused by d52c24b0f8, and the problem can happen
with upgrade dumps from v17 and v18 to HEAD. This problem is not
currently reachable in the back-branches, but it could be possible that
a future change in injection_points in stable branches invalidates this
theory, so this commit is applied down to v17 in the test modules that
matter.

PostgreSQL's src/port/open.c has always set bInheritHandle = TRUE
when opening files on Windows, making all file descriptors inheritable
by child processes. This meant the O_CLOEXEC flag, added to many call
sites by commit 1da569ca1f (v16), was silently ignored.
The original commit included a comment suggesting that our open()
replacement doesn't create inheritable handles, but it was a mis-
understanding of the code path. In practice, the code was creating
inheritable handles in all cases.
This hasn't caused widespread problems because most child processes
(archive_command, COPY PROGRAM, etc.) operate on file paths passed as
arguments rather than inherited file descriptors. Even if a child
wanted to use an inherited handle, it would need to learn the numeric
handle value, which isn't passed through our IPC mechanisms.
Nonetheless, the current behavior is wrong. It violates documented
O_CLOEXEC semantics, contradicts our own code comments, and makes
PostgreSQL behave differently on Windows than on Unix. It also creates
potential issues with future code or security auditing tools.
To fix, define O_CLOEXEC to _O_NOINHERIT in master, previously used by
O_DSYNC. We use different values in the back branches to preserve
existing values. In pgwin32_open_handle() we set bInheritHandle
according to whether O_CLOEXEC is specified, for the same atomic
semantics as POSIX in multi-threaded programs that create processes.

POSIX has for a long time defined the "j" length modifier for
printf conversions as meaning the size of intmax_t or uintmax_t.
We got away without supporting that so far, because we were not
using intmax_t anywhere. However, commit e6be84356 re-introduced
upstream's use of intmax_t and PRIdMAX into zic.c. It emerges
that on some platforms (at least FreeBSD and macOS), <inttypes.h>
defines PRIdMAX as "jd", so that snprintf.c falls over if that is
used. (We hadn't noticed yet because it would only be apparent
if bad data is fed to zic, resulting in an error report, and even
then the only visible symptom is a missing line number in the
error message.)
We could revert that decision from our copy of zic.c, but
on the whole it seems better to update snprintf.c to support
this standard modifier. There might well be extensions,
now or in future, that expect it to work.
I did this in the lazy man's way of translating "j" to either
"l" or "ll" depending on a compile-time sizeof() check, just
as was done long ago to support "z" for size_t. One could
imagine promoting intmax_t to have full support in snprintf.c,
for example converting fmtint()'s value argument and internal
arithmetic to use [u]intmax_t not [unsigned] long long. But
that'd be more work and I'm hesitant to do it anyway: if there
are any platforms out there where intmax_t is actually wider
than "long long", this would doubtless result in a noticeable
speed penalty to snprintf(). Let's not go there until we have
positive evidence that there's a reason to, and some way to
measure what size of penalty we're taking.

This eliminates MultiXactOffset wraparound and the 2^32 limit on the
total number of multixid members. Multixids are still limited to 2^31,
but this is a nice improvement because 'members' can grow much faster
than the number of multixids. On such systems, you can now run longer
before hitting hard limits or triggering anti-wraparound vacuums.
Not having to deal with MultiXactOffset wraparound also simplifies the
code and removes some gnarly corner cases.
We no longer need to perform emergency anti-wraparound freezing
because of running out of 'members' space, so the offset stop limit is
gone. But you might still not want 'members' to consume huge amounts
of disk space. For that reason, I kept the logic for lowering vacuum's
multixid freezing cutoff if a large amount of 'members' space is
used. The thresholds for that are roughly the same as the "safe" and
"danger" thresholds used before, 2 billion transactions and 4 billion
transactions. This keeps the behavior for the freeze cutoff roughly
the same as before. It might make sense to make this smarter or
configurable, now that the threshold is only needed to manage disk
usage, but that's left for the future.
Add code to pg_upgrade to convert multitransactions from the old to
the new format, rewriting the pg_multixact SLRU files. Because
pg_upgrade now rewrites the files, we can get rid of some hacks we had
put in place to deal with old bugs and upgraded clusters. Bump catalog
version for the pg_multixact/offsets format change.

query_is_distinct_for() is intended to determine whether a query never
returns duplicates of the specified columns. For queries using
grouping sets, if there are no grouping expressions, the query may
contain one or more empty grouping sets. The goal is to detect
whether there is exactly one empty grouping set, in which case the
query would return a single row and thus be distinct.
The previous logic in query_is_distinct_for() was incomplete because
the check was insufficiently thorough and could return false when it
could have returned true. It failed to consider cases where the
DISTINCT clause is used on the GROUP BY, in which case duplicate empty
grouping sets are removed, leaving only one. It also did not
correctly handle all possible structures of GroupingSet nodes that
represent a single empty grouping set.
To fix, add a check for the groupDistinct flag, and expand the query's
groupingSets tree into a flat list, then verify that the expanded list
contains only one element.

Similar to the issue with constraint and statistics expressions fixed
in 317c117d6, index expressions and predicate can also suffer from
incorrect reduction of NullTest clauses during const-simplification,
due to unfixed varnos and the use of a NULL root. It has been
reported that this issue can cause the planner to fail to pick up a
partial index that it previously matched successfully.
Because we need to cache the const-simplified index expressions and
predicate in the relcache entry, we cannot fix the Vars before
applying eval_const_expressions. To ensure proper reduction of
NullTest clauses, this patch runs eval_const_expressions a second time
-- after the Vars have been fixed and with a valid root.
It could be argued that the additional call to eval_const_expressions
might increase planning time, but I don't think that's a concern. It
only runs when index expressions and predicate are present; it is
relatively cheap when run on small expression trees (which is
typically the case for index expressions and predicate), and it runs
on expressions that have already been const-simplified once, making
the second pass even cheaper. In return, in cases like the one
reported, it allows the planner to match and use partial indexes,
which can lead to significant execution-time improvements.

Previously, the slotsync worker relied on SIGINT for graceful shutdown
during promotion. However, SIGINT is also used by the LOCK_TIMEOUT handler
to cancel queries. Since the slotsync worker can lock catalog tables while
parsing libpq tuples, this overlap caused it to ignore LOCK_TIMEOUT
signals and potentially wait indefinitely on locks.
This patch replaces the slotsync worker's SIGINT handler with
StatementCancelHandler to correctly process query-cancel interrupts.
Additionally, the startup process now uses SIGUSR1 to signal the slotsync
worker to stop during promotion. The worker exits after detecting that the
shared memory flag stopSignaled is set.
