Tom Lane 49076fd3ba Fix list-manipulation bug in WITH RECURSIVE processing.
makeDependencyGraphWalker and checkWellFormedRecursionWalker
thought they could hold onto a pointer to a list's first
cons cell while the list was modified by recursive calls.
That was okay when the cons cell was actually separately
palloc'd ... but since commit 1cff1b95a, it's quite unsafe,
leading to core dumps or incorrect complaints of faulty
WITH nesting.

In the field this'd require at least a seven-deep WITH nest
to cause an issue, but enabling DEBUG_LIST_MEMORY_USAGE
allows the bug to be seen with lesser nesting depths.

Per bug #16801 from Alexander Lakhin.  Back-patch to v13.

Michael Paquier and Tom Lane

src/backend/parser/README

Parser
======

This directory does more than tokenize and parse SQL queries.  It also
creates Query structures for the various complex queries that are passed
to the optimizer and then executor.

parser.c	things start here
scan.l		break query into tokens
scansup.c	handle escapes in input strings
gram.y		parse the tokens and produce a "raw" parse tree
analyze.c	top level of parse analysis for optimizable queries
parse_agg.c	handle aggregates, like SUM(col1),  AVG(col2), ...
parse_clause.c	handle clauses like WHERE, ORDER BY, GROUP BY, ...
parse_coerce.c	handle coercing expressions to different data types
parse_collate.c	assign collation information in completed expressions
parse_cte.c	handle Common Table Expressions (WITH clauses)
parse_expr.c	handle expressions like col, col + 3, x = 3 or x = 4
parse_func.c	handle functions, table.column and column identifiers
parse_node.c	create nodes for various structures
parse_oper.c	handle operators in expressions
parse_param.c	handle Params (for the cases used in the core backend)
parse_relation.c support routines for tables and column handling
parse_target.c	handle the result list of the query
parse_type.c	support routines for data type handling
parse_utilcmd.c	parse analysis for utility commands (done at execution time)

See also src/common/keywords.c, which contains the table of standard
keywords and the keyword lookup function.  We separated that out because
various frontend code wants to use it too.
