This new DDL command splits a single partition into several partitions. Just like the ALTER TABLE ... MERGE PARTITIONS ... command, new partitions are created using the createPartitionTable() function with the parent partition as the template. This commit comprises a quite naive implementation which works in a single process and holds the ACCESS EXCLUSIVE LOCK on the parent table during all the operations, including the tuple routing. This is why the new DDL command can't be recommended for large, partitioned tables under high load. However, this implementation comes in handy in certain cases, even as it is. Also, it could serve as a foundation for future implementations with less locking and possibly parallelism.

Representation of non-ASCII characters
--------------------------------------
Find non-ASCII characters using:
grep --recursive --color='auto' -P '[\x80-\xFF]' .
Convert to HTML4 named entity (&) escapes
-----------------------------------------
We support several output formats:
* html (supports all Unicode characters)
* man (supports all Unicode characters)
* pdf (supports only Latin-1 characters)
* info
While some output formatting tools support all Unicode characters,
others only support Latin-1 characters. Specifically, the PDF rendering
engine can only display Latin-1 characters; non-Latin-1 Unicode
characters are displayed as "###".
Therefore, in the SGML files, we can only use Latin-1 characters. We
can use UTF8 representations of Latin-1 characters, or HTML entities of
Latin-1 characters, e.g., Álvaro.
Do not use UTF numeric character escapes (&#nnn;).
When building the PDF docs, problem characters will appear as warnings.
