Tom Lane 2e46b762eb Extend join-selectivity API (oprjoin interface) so that join type is 
passed to join selectivity estimators.  Make use of this in eqjoinsel
to derive non-bogus selectivity for IN clauses.  Further tweaking of
cost estimation for IN.
initdb forced because of pg_proc.h changes.

* clauselist_selectivity -
* Compute the selectivity of an implicitly-ANDed list of boolean
* expression clauses. The list can be empty, in which case 1.0
* must be returned.
*
* See clause_selectivity() for the meaning of the additional parameters.
*
* Our basic approach is to take the product of the selectivities of the
* subclauses. However, that's only right if the subclauses have independent
* probabilities, and in reality they are often NOT independent. So,
* we want to be smarter where we can.
* Currently, the only extra smarts we have is to recognize "range queries",
* such as "x > 34 AND x < 42". Clauses are recognized as possible range
* query components if they are restriction opclauses whose operators have
* scalarltsel() or scalargtsel() as their restriction selectivity estimator.
* We pair up clauses of this form that refer to the same variable. An
* unpairable clause of this kind is simply multiplied into the selectivity
* product in the normal way. But when we find a pair, we know that the
* selectivities represent the relative positions of the low and high bounds
* within the column's range, so instead of figuring the selectivity as
* hisel * losel, we can figure it as hisel + losel - 1. (To visualize this,
* see that hisel is the fraction of the range below the high bound, while
* losel is the fraction above the low bound; so hisel can be interpreted
* directly as a 0..1 value but we need to convert losel to 1-losel before
* interpreting it as a value. Then the available range is 1-losel to hisel.
* However, this calculation double-excludes nulls, so really we need
* hisel + losel + null_frac - 1.)
* If the calculation yields zero or negative, however, we chicken out and
* use a default estimate; that probably means that one or both
* selectivities is a default estimate rather than an actual range value.
* Of course this is all very dependent on the behavior of
* scalarltsel/scalargtsel; perhaps some day we can generalize the approach.
