This patch causes EXPLAIN output to refer to objects that are in the current session's temp schema with the "pg_temp" schema alias rather than that schema's actual name. This is useful for our own testing purposes since it will stabilize EXPLAIN VERBOSE output for such cases, allowing us to use that in regression tests. It should be less confusing for end users too. Since ruleutils.c needs to change behavior for this, the change also leaks into a few other users of ruleutils.c, for example pg_get_viewdef(). AFAICS that won't cause any problems. We did find that aggressively trying to change this behavior across-the-board would cause issues, but as long as "pg_temp" only appears within generated SQL text, I think it'll be fine. Along the way, make get_namespace_name_or_temp conform to the same API as get_namespace_name, ie that it returns a palloc'd string or NULL. The current behavior hasn't caused any bugs since no callers attempt to pfree the result, but if it gets more widespread usage that could become a problem.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
