Improve query_is_distinct_for() to accept SRFs in the targetlist when we can prove distinctness from a DISTINCT clause. In that case the de-duplication will surely happen after SRF expansion, so the proof still works. Continue to punt in the case where we'd try to prove distinctness from GROUP BY (or, in the future, source relations). To do that, we'd have to determine whether the SRFs were in the grouping columns or elsewhere in the tlist, and it still doesn't seem worth the trouble. But this trivial change allows us to recognize that "SELECT DISTINCT unnest(foo) FROM ..." produces unique-ified output, which seems worth having. Also, fix estimate_num_groups() to consider the possibility of SRFs in the grouping columns. Its failure to do so was masked before v10 because grouping_planner() scaled up plan rowcount estimates by the estimated SRF multiplier after performing grouping. That doesn't happen anymore, which is more correct, but it means we need an adjustment in the estimate for the number of groups. Failure to do this leads to an underestimate for the number of output rows of subqueries like "SELECT DISTINCT unnest(foo)" compared to what 9.6 and earlier estimated, thus breaking plan choices in some cases. Per report from Dmitry Shalashov. Back-patch to v10 to avoid degraded plan choices compared to previous releases.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
