 * create_index_paths()

 *
 * To be considered for an index scan, an index must match one or more
 * restriction clauses or join clauses from the query's qual condition,
 * or match the query's ORDER BY condition.
 *
 * There are two basic kinds of index scans.  A "plain" index scan uses
 * only restriction clauses (possibly none at all) in its indexqual,
 * so it can be applied in any context.  An "innerjoin" index scan uses
 * join clauses (plus restriction clauses, if available) in its indexqual.
 * Therefore it can only be used as the inner relation of a nestloop
 * join against an outer rel that includes all the other rels mentioned
 * in its join clauses.  In that context, values for the other rels'
 * attributes are available and fixed during any one scan of the indexpath.
 *
 * An IndexPath is generated and submitted to add_path() for each plain index
 * scan this routine deems potentially interesting for the current query.
 *
 * We also determine the set of other relids that participate in join
 * clauses that could be used with each index.	The actually best innerjoin
 * path will be generated for each outer relation later on, but knowing the
 * set of potential otherrels allows us to identify equivalent outer relations
 * and avoid repeated computation.
 *
 * 'rel' is the relation for which we want to generate index paths

/*----------
 * pred_test_simple_clause
 *	  Does the "predicate inclusion test" for a "simple clause" predicate
 *	  and a "simple clause" restriction.
 *
 * We have three strategies for determining whether one simple clause
 * implies another:
 *
 * A simple and general way is to see if they are equal(); this works for any
 * kind of expression.	(Actually, there is an implied assumption that the
 * functions in the expression are immutable, ie dependent only on their input
 * arguments --- but this was checked for the predicate by CheckPredicate().)
 *
 * When the predicate is of the form "foo IS NOT NULL", we can conclude that
 * the predicate is implied if the clause is a strict operator or function
 * that has "foo" as an input.	In this case the clause must yield NULL when
 * "foo" is NULL, which we can take as equivalent to FALSE because we know
 * we are within an AND/OR subtree of a WHERE clause.  (Again, "foo" is
 * already known immutable, so the clause will certainly always fail.)
 *
 * Our other way works only for binary boolean opclauses of the form
 * "foo op constant", where "foo" is the same in both clauses.	The operators
 * and constants can be different but the operators must be in the same btree
 * operator class.	We use the above operator implication table to be able to
 * derive implications between nonidentical clauses.  (Note: "foo" is known
 * immutable, and constants are surely immutable, but we have to check that
 * the operators are too.  As of 8.0 it's possible for opclasses to contain
 * operators that are merely stable, and we dare not make deductions with
 * these.)
 *
 * Eventually, rtree operators could also be handled by defining an
 * appropriate "RT_implic_table" array.

 ****************************************************************************/

/*----------
 * These routines handle special optimization of operators that can be
 * used with index scans even though they are not known to the executor's
 * indexscan machinery.  The key idea is that these operators allow us
 * to derive approximate indexscan qual clauses, such that any tuples
 * that pass the operator clause itself must also satisfy the simpler
 * indexscan condition(s).	Then we can use the indexscan machinery
 * to avoid scanning as much of the table as we'd otherwise have to,
 * while applying the original operator as a qpqual condition to ensure
 * we deliver only the tuples we want.	(In essence, we're using a regular
 * index as if it were a lossy index.)
 *
 * An example of what we're doing is
 *			textfield LIKE 'abc%'
 * from which we can generate the indexscanable conditions
 *			textfield >= 'abc' AND textfield < 'abd'
 * which allow efficient scanning of an index on textfield.
 * (In reality, character set and collation issues make the transformation
 * from LIKE to indexscan limits rather harder than one might think ...
 * but that's the basic idea.)
 *
 * Two routines are provided here, match_special_index_operator() and
 * expand_indexqual_conditions().  match_special_index_operator() is
 * just an auxiliary function for match_clause_to_indexcol(); after
 * the latter fails to recognize a restriction opclause's operator
 * as a member of an index's opclass, it asks match_special_index_operator()
 * whether the clause should be considered an indexqual anyway.
 * expand_indexqual_conditions() converts a list of lists of RestrictInfo
 * nodes (with implicit AND semantics across list elements) into
 * a list of clauses that the executor can actually handle.  For operators
 * that are members of the index's opclass this transformation is a no-op,
 * but operators recognized by match_special_index_operator() must be
 * converted into one or more "regular" indexqual conditions.
