Commit d2d8a229bc introduced Incremental Sort, but it was considered only in create_ordered_paths() as an alternative to regular Sort. There are many other places that require sorted input and might benefit from considering Incremental Sort too. This patch modifies a number of those places, but not all. The concern is that just adding Incremental Sort to any place that already adds Sort may increase the number of paths considered, negatively affecting planning time, without any benefit. So we've taken a more conservative approach, based on analysis of which places do affect a set of queries that did seem practical. This means some less common queries may not benefit from Incremental Sort yet.

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.
