When reading from a text- or CSV-format file in file_fdw, the datatype input routines can consume a significant fraction of the runtime. Often, the query does not need all the columns, so we can get a useful speed boost by skipping I/O conversion for unnecessary columns. To support this, add a "convert_selectively" option to the core COPY code. This is undocumented and not accessible from SQL (for now, anyway). Etsuro Fujita, reviewed by KaiGai Kohei
