* Resdom (Result Domain)
*
* Notes:
*
* In a SELECT's targetlist, resno should always be equal to the item's
* ordinal position (counting from 1). However, in an INSERT or UPDATE
* targetlist, resno represents the attribute number of the destination
* column for the item; so there may be missing or out-of-order resnos.
* It is even legal to have duplicated resnos; consider
* UPDATE table SET arraycol[1] = ..., arraycol[2] = ..., ...
* The two meanings come together in the executor, because the planner
* transforms INSERT/UPDATE tlists into a normalized form with exactly
* one entry for each column of the destination table. Before that's
* happened, however, it is risky to assume that resno == position.
* Generally get_tle_by_resno() should be used rather than list_nth()
* to fetch tlist entries by resno, and only in SELECT should you assume
* that resno is a unique identifier.
*
* resname is required to represent the correct column name in non-resjunk
* entries of top-level SELECT targetlists, since it will be used as the
* column title sent to the frontend. In most other contexts it is only
* a debugging aid, and may be wrong or even NULL. (In particular, it may
* be wrong in a tlist from a stored rule, if the referenced column has been
* renamed by ALTER TABLE since the rule was made. Also, the planner tends
* to store NULL rather than look up a valid name for tlist entries in
* non-toplevel plan nodes.) In resjunk entries, resname should be either
* a specific system-generated name (such as "ctid") or NULL; anything else
* risks confusing ExecGetJunkAttribute!
*
* ressortgroupref is used in the representation of ORDER BY and
* GROUP BY items. Targetlist entries with ressortgroupref=0 are not
* sort/group items. If ressortgroupref>0, then this item is an ORDER BY or
* GROUP BY value. No two entries in a targetlist may have the same nonzero
* ressortgroupref --- but there is no particular meaning to the nonzero
* values, except as tags. (For example, one must not assume that lower
* ressortgroupref means a more significant sort key.) The order of the
* associated SortClause or GroupClause lists determine the semantics.
*
* resorigtbl/resorigcol identify the source of the column, if it is a
* simple reference to a column of a base table (or view). If it is not
* a simple reference, these fields are zeroes.
*
* If resjunk is true then the column is a working column (such as a sort key)
* that should be removed from the final output of the query. Resjunk columns
* must have resnos that cannot duplicate any regular column's resno. Also
* note that there are places that assume resjunk columns come after non-junk
* columns.

* SubLink
*
* A SubLink represents a subselect appearing in an expression, and in some

* ALL_SUBLINK (lefthand) op ALL (SELECT ...)
* ANY_SUBLINK (lefthand) op ANY (SELECT ...)
* MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK (lefthand) op (SELECT ...)
* EXPR_SUBLINK (SELECT with single targetlist item ...)
* ARRAY_SUBLINK ARRAY(SELECT with single targetlist item ...)
* For ALL, ANY, and MULTIEXPR, the lefthand is a list of expressions of the
* same length as the subselect's targetlist. MULTIEXPR will *always* have
* a list with more than one entry; if the subselect has just one target
* then the parser will create an EXPR_SUBLINK instead (and any operator
* above the subselect will be represented separately). Note that both
* MULTIEXPR and EXPR require the subselect to deliver only one row.
* ARRAY requires just one target column, and creates an array of the target
* column's type using one or more rows resulting from the subselect.
* ALL, ANY, and MULTIEXPR require the combining operators to deliver boolean
* results. These are reduced to one result per row using OR or AND semantics
* depending on the "useOr" flag. ALL and ANY combine the per-row results
* using AND and OR semantics respectively.
*
* SubLink is classed as an Expr node, but it is not actually executable;
* it must be replaced in the expression tree by a SubPlan node during
* planning.
*
* NOTE: in the raw output of gram.y, lefthand contains a list of raw
* expressions; useOr and operOids are not filled in yet. Also, subselect
* is a raw parsetree. During parse analysis, the parser transforms the
* lefthand expression list using normal expression transformation rules.
* It fills operOids with the OIDs representing the specific operator(s)
* to apply to each pair of lefthand and targetlist expressions.
* And subselect is transformed to a Query. This is the representation
* seen in saved rules and in the rewriter.
*
* In EXISTS, EXPR, and ARRAY SubLinks, lefthand, operName, and operOids are
* unused and are always NIL. useOr is not significant either for these
* sublink types.

*
* In an ordinary subplan, "exprs" points to a list of executable expressions

* and out of the subplan. Input values are represented as a list "args" of

* (the parParam and args lists must have the same ordering). setParam is a

* node types for join trees
*
* The leaves of a join tree structure are RangeTblRef nodes. Above
* these, JoinExpr nodes can appear to denote a specific kind of join
* or qualified join. Also, FromExpr nodes can appear to denote an
* ordinary cross-product join ("FROM foo, bar, baz WHERE ...").
* FromExpr is like a JoinExpr of jointype JOIN_INNER, except that it
* may have any number of child nodes, not just two. Also, there is an
* implementation-defined difference: the planner is allowed to join the
* children of a FromExpr using whatever join order seems good to it.
* At present, JoinExpr nodes are always joined in exactly the order
* implied by the jointree structure (except the planner may choose to
* swap inner and outer members of a join pair).
*
* NOTE: the top level of a Query's jointree is always a FromExpr.
* Even if the jointree contains no rels, there will be a FromExpr.
*
* NOTE: the qualification expressions present in JoinExpr nodes are
* *in addition to* the query's main WHERE clause, which appears as the
* qual of the top-level FromExpr. The reason for associating quals with
* specific nodes in the jointree is that the position of a qual is critical
* when outer joins are present. (If we enforce a qual too soon or too late,
* that may cause the outer join to produce the wrong set of NULL-extended
* rows.) If all joins are inner joins then all the qual positions are
* semantically interchangeable.
*
* NOTE: in the raw output of gram.y, a join tree contains RangeVar,
* RangeSubselect, and RangeFunction nodes, which are all replaced by
* RangeTblRef nodes during the parse analysis phase. Also, the top-level
* FromExpr is added during parse analysis; the grammar regards FROM and
* WHERE as separate.

* JoinExpr - for SQL JOIN expressions
*
* isNatural, using, and quals are interdependent. The user can write only
* one of NATURAL, USING(), or ON() (this is enforced by the grammar).
* If he writes NATURAL then parse analysis generates the equivalent USING()
* list, and from that fills in "quals" with the right equality comparisons.
* If he writes USING() then "quals" is filled with equality comparisons.
* If he writes ON() then only "quals" is set. Note that NATURAL/USING
* are not equivalent to ON() since they also affect the output column list.
*
* alias is an Alias node representing the AS alias-clause attached to the
* join expression, or NULL if no clause. NB: presence or absence of the
* alias has a critical impact on semantics, because a join with an alias
* restricts visibility of the tables/columns inside it.
*
* During parse analysis, an RTE is created for the Join, and its index
* is filled into rtindex. This RTE is present mainly so that Vars can
* be created that refer to the outputs of the join.
