Using \ is unnecessary and ugly, so remove that. While at it, stitch
the literals back into a single line: we've long discouraged splitting
error message literals even when they go past the 80 chars line limit,
to improve greppability.
Leave contrib/tablefunc alone.

While building a hash map of categories in load_categories_hash,
resulting category names have not thus far been checked to ensure
they are not null. Prior to pg12 null category names worked to the
extent that they did not crash on some platforms. This is because
those system libraries have an snprintf which can deal with being
passed a null pointer argument for a string. But even in those cases
null categories did nothing useful. And on some platforms it crashed.
As of pg12, our own version of snprintf gets called, and it does
not deal with null pointer arguments at all, and crashes consistently.
Fix that by disallowing null categories. They never worked usefully,
and no one has ever asked for them to work previously. Back-patch to
all supported branches.

The basic rule we follow here is to always first include 'postgres.h' or
'postgres_fe.h' whichever is applicable, then system header includes and
then Postgres header includes. In this, we also follow that all the
Postgres header includes are in order based on their ASCII value. We
generally follow these rules, but the code has deviated in many places.
This commit makes it consistent just for contrib modules. The later
commits will enforce similar rules in other parts of code.

This is a mechanical change in preparation for a later commit that
will change the layout of TupleDesc. Introducing a macro to abstract
the details of where attributes are stored will allow us to change
that in separate step and revise it in future.

Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they
flow past the right margin.
By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are
within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding
left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the
continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin,
then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin,
if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of
the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations
unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column
limit.
This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers.
Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized
lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren.
This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent
changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments
to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments
following #endif to not obey the general rule.
Commit e3860ffa4d wasn't actually using
the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that
tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of
code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be
moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's
code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops
in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working
in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the
net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed
one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves
more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such
cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after
the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after.
Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same
as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else.
That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage
from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent.

This patch widens SPI_processed, EState's es_processed field, PortalData's
portalPos field, FuncCallContext's call_cntr and max_calls fields,
ExecutorRun's count argument, PortalRunFetch's result, and the max number
of rows in a SPITupleTable to uint64, and deals with (I hope) all the
ensuing fallout. Some of these values were declared uint32 before, and
others "long".
I also removed PortalData's posOverflow field, since that logic seems
pretty useless given that portalPos is now always 64 bits.
The user-visible results are that command tags for SELECT etc will
correctly report tuple counts larger than 4G, as will plpgsql's GET
GET DIAGNOSTICS ... ROW_COUNT command. Queries processing more tuples
than that are still not exactly the norm, but they're becoming more
common.
Most values associated with FETCH/MOVE distances, such as PortalRun's count
argument and the count argument of most SPI functions that have one, remain
declared as "long". It's not clear whether it would be worth promoting
those to int64; but it would definitely be a large dollop of additional
API churn on top of this, and it would only help 32-bit platforms which
seem relatively less likely to see any benefit.

It's against project policy to use elog() for user-facing errors, or to
omit an errcode() selection for errors that aren't supposed to be "can't
happen" cases. Fix all the violations of this policy that result in
ERRCODE_INTERNAL_ERROR log entries during the standard regression tests,
as errors that can reliably be triggered from SQL surely should be
considered user-facing.
I also looked through all the files touched by this commit and fixed
other nearby problems of the same ilk. I do not claim to have fixed
all violations of the policy, just the ones in these files.
In a few places I also changed existing ERRCODE choices that didn't
seem particularly appropriate; mainly replacing ERRCODE_SYNTAX_ERROR
by something more specific.
Back-patch to 9.5, but no further; changing ERRCODE assignments in
stable branches doesn't seem like a good idea.
connectby() didn't adequately check that the constructed SQL query returns
what it's expected to; in fact, since commit 08c33c426b it wasn't
checking that at all. This could result in a null-pointer-dereference
crash if the constructed query returns only one column instead of the
expected two. Less excitingly, it could also result in surprising data
conversion failures if the constructed query returned values that were
not I/O-conversion-compatible with the types specified by the query
calling connectby().
In all branches, insist that the query return at least two columns;
this seems like a minimal sanity check that can't break any reasonable
use-cases.
In HEAD, insist that the constructed query return the types specified by
the outer query, including checking for typmod incompatibility, which the
code never did even before it got broken. This is to hide the fact that
the implementation does a conversion to text and back; someday we might
want to improve that.
In back branches, leave that alone, since adding a type check in a minor
release is more likely to break things than make people happy. Type
inconsistencies will continue to work so long as the actual type and
declared type are I/O representation compatible, and otherwise will fail
the same way they used to.
Also, in all branches, be on guard for NULL results from the constructed
query, which formerly would cause null-pointer dereference crashes.
We now print the row with the NULL but don't recurse down from it.
In passing, get rid of the rather pointless idea that
build_tuplestore_recursively() should return the same tuplestore that's
passed to it.

This reduces unnecessary exposure of other headers through htup.h, which
is very widely included by many files.
I have chosen to move the function prototypes to the new file as well,
because that means htup.h no longer needs to include tupdesc.h. In
itself this doesn't have much effect in indirect inclusion of tupdesc.h
throughout the tree, because it's also required by execnodes.h; but it's
something to explore in the future, and it seemed best to do the htup.h
change now while I'm busy with it.
This eliminates the need for inefficient implementions of this
functionality in both contrib/dblink and contrib/tablefunc, so remove

will also require this functionality.

strings. This patch introduces four support functions cstring_to_text,
cstring_to_text_with_len, text_to_cstring, and text_to_cstring_buffer, and
two macros CStringGetTextDatum and TextDatumGetCString. A number of
existing macros that provided variants on these themes were removed.
Most of the places that need to make such conversions now require just one
function or macro call, in place of the multiple notational layers that used
to be needed. There are no longer any direct calls of textout or textin,
and we got most of the places that were using handmade conversions via
memcpy (there may be a few still lurking, though).
This commit doesn't make any serious effort to eliminate transient memory
leaks caused by detoasting toasted text objects before they reach
text_to_cstring. We changed PG_GETARG_TEXT_P to PG_GETARG_TEXT_PP in a few
places where it was easy, but much more could be done.

The original coding leaked memory (at least 8K per crosstab_hash call)
because it allowed the hash table to be allocated as a child of
TopMemoryContext and then never freed it. Fix that by putting the
hash table under per_query_ctx, instead. Also get rid of use
of a static variable to point to the hash table. Aside from being
ugly, that would actively do the wrong thing in the case of re-entrant
calls to crosstab_hash, which are at least theoretically possible
since it was expecting the static variable to stay valid across
a SPI_execute call.

are unnecessarily allocated on the heap rather than the stack. If the
StringInfo doesn't outlive the stack frame in which it is created,
there is no need to allocate it on the heap via makeStringInfo() --
stack allocation is faster. While it's not a big deal unless the
code is in a critical path, I don't see a reason not to save a few
cycles -- using stack allocation is not less readable.
I also cleaned up a bit of code along the way: moved variable
declarations into a more tightly-enclosing scope where possible,
fixed some pointless copying of strings in dblink, etc.
