This patch fixes two distinct errors that both ultimately trace to commit 71d60e2aa, which added the ats_modifiedcols field. The more severe error is that ats_modifiedcols wasn't accounted for in afterTriggerAddEvent's scanning loop that looks for a pre-existing duplicate AfterTriggerSharedData. Thus, a new event could be incorrectly matched to an AfterTriggerSharedData that has a different value of ats_modifiedcols, resulting in the wrong tg_updatedcols bitmap getting passed to the trigger whenever it finally gets fired. We'd not noticed because (a) few triggers consult tg_updatedcols, and (b) we had no tests exercising a case where such a trigger was called as an AFTER trigger. In the test case added by this commit, contrib/lo's trigger fails to remove a large object when expected because (without this fix) it thinks the LO OID column hasn't changed. The other problem was introduced by commit ce5aaea8c, which copied the modified-columns bitmap into trigger-related storage. It made a copy for every trigger event, whereas what we really want is to make a new copy only when we make a new AfterTriggerSharedData entry. (We could imagine adding extra logic to reduce the number of bitmap copies still more, but it doesn't look worthwhile at the moment.) In a simple test of an UPDATE of 10000000 rows with a single AFTER trigger, this thinko roughly tripled the amount of memory consumed by the pending-triggers data structures, from 160446744 to 480443440 bytes. Fixing the first problem requires introducing a bms_equal() call into afterTriggerAddEvent's scanning loop, which is slightly annoying from a speed perspective. However, getting rid of the excessive bms_copy() calls from the second problem balances that out; overall speed of trigger operations is the same or slightly better, in my tests.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
