This patch fixes two inadequacies of the PlanRowMark representation. First, that the original LockingClauseStrength isn't stored (and cannot be inferred for foreign tables, which always get ROW_MARK_COPY). Since some PlanRowMarks are created out of whole cloth and don't actually have an ancestral RowMarkClause, this requires adding a dummy LCS_NONE value to enum LockingClauseStrength, which is fairly annoying but the alternatives seem worse. This fix allows getting rid of the use of get_parse_rowmark() in FDWs (as per the discussion around commits 462bd95705a0c23b and 8ec8760fc87ecde0), and it simplifies some things elsewhere. Second, that the representation assumed that all child tables in an inheritance hierarchy would use the same RowMarkType. That's true today but will soon not be true. We add an "allMarkTypes" field that identifies the union of mark types used in all a parent table's children, and use that where appropriate (currently, only in preprocess_targetlist()). In passing fix a couple of minor infelicities left over from the SKIP LOCKED patch, notably that _outPlanRowMark still thought waitPolicy is a bool. Catversion bump is required because the numeric values of enum LockingClauseStrength can appear in on-disk rules. Extracted from a much larger patch to support foreign table inheritance; it seemed worth breaking this out, since it's a separable concern. Shigeru Hanada and Etsuro Fujita, somewhat modified by me

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 kwlookup.c turn keywords into specific tokens keywords.c table of standard keywords (passed to kwlookup.c) 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)
