This commit adds function postgres_fdw_get_connections() to return
the foreign server names of all the open connections that postgres_fdw
established from the local session to the foreign servers. This function
also returns whether each connection is valid or not.
This function is useful when checking all the open foreign server connections.
If we found some connection to drop, from the result of function, probably
we can explicitly close them by the function that upcoming commit will add.
This commit bumps the version of postgres_fdw to 1.1 since it adds
new function.

When maintaining or merging patches, one of the most common sources
for conflicts are the list of objects in makefiles. Especially when
the split across lines has been changed on both sides, which is
somewhat common due to attempting to stay below 80 columns, those
conflicts are unnecessarily laborious to resolve.
By splitting, and alphabetically sorting, OBJS style lines into one
object per line, conflicts should be less frequent, and easier to
resolve when they still occur.

We were being careless in some places about the order of -L switches in
link command lines, such that -L switches referring to external directories
could come before those referring to directories within the build tree.
This made it possible to accidentally link a system-supplied library, for
example /usr/lib/libpq.so, in place of the one built in the build tree.
Hilarity ensued, the more so the older the system-supplied library is.
To fix, break LDFLAGS into two parts, a sub-variable LDFLAGS_INTERNAL
and the main LDFLAGS variable, both of which are "recursively expanded"
so that they can be incrementally adjusted by different makefiles.
Establish a policy that -L switches for directories in the build tree
must always be added to LDFLAGS_INTERNAL, while -L switches for external
directories must always be added to LDFLAGS. This is sufficient to
ensure a safe search order. For simplicity, we typically also put -l
switches for the respective libraries into those same variables.
(Traditional make usage would have us put -l switches into LIBS, but
cleaning that up is a project for another day, as there's no clear
need for it.)
This turns out to also require separating SHLIB_LINK into two variables,
SHLIB_LINK and SHLIB_LINK_INTERNAL, with a similar rule about which
switches go into which variable. And likewise for PG_LIBS.
Although this change might appear to affect external users of pgxs.mk,
I think it doesn't; they shouldn't have any need to touch the _INTERNAL
variables.
In passing, tweak src/common/Makefile so that the value of CPPFLAGS
recorded in pg_config lacks "-DFRONTEND" and the recorded value of
LDFLAGS lacks "-L../../../src/common". Both of those things are
mistakes, apparently introduced during prior code rearrangements,
as old versions of pg_config don't print them. In general we don't
want anything that's specific to the src/common subdirectory to
appear in those outputs.
This is certainly a bug fix, but in view of the lack of field
complaints, I'm unsure whether it's worth the risk of back-patching.
In any case it seems wise to see what the buildfarm makes of it first.

The user can whitelist specified extension(s) in the foreign server's
options, whereupon we will treat immutable functions and operators of those
extensions as candidates to be sent for remote execution.
Whitelisting an extension in this way basically promises that the extension
exists on the remote server and behaves compatibly with the local instance.
We have no way to prove that formally, so we have to rely on the user to
get it right. But this seems like something that people can usually get
right in practice.
We might in future allow functions and operators to be whitelisted
individually, but extension granularity is a very convenient special case,
so it got done first.
The patch as-committed lacks any regression tests, which is unfortunate,
but introducing dependencies on other extensions for testing purposes
would break "make installcheck" scenarios, which is worse. I have some
ideas about klugy ways around that, but it seems like material for a
separate patch. For the moment, leave the problem open.
Paul Ramsey, hacked up a bit more by me
dblink and postgres_fdw use SHLIB_PREREQS = submake-libpq to build libpq
first. This doesn't work in a PGXS build, because there is no libpq to
build. So just omit setting SHLIB_PREREQS in this case.
Note that PGXS users can still use SHLIB_PREREQS (although it is not
documented). The problem here is only that contrib modules can be built
in-tree or using PGXS, and the prerequisite is only applicable in the
former case.
Commit 6697aa2bc2 previously attempted to
address this by creating a somewhat fake submake-libpq target in
Makefile.global. That was not the right fix, and it was also done in a
nonportable way, so revert that.
That allows parallel installcheck to succeed inside contrib/. The
output is not particularly pretty unless make's -O option to
synchronize the output is used.
There's other tests, outside contrib, that use a hardcoded,
non-unique, database name. Those prohibit paralell installcheck to be
used across more directories; but that's something for a separate
patch.
Prominent binaries already had this metadata. A handful of minor
binaries, such as pg_regress.exe, still lack it; efforts to eliminate
such exceptions are welcome.

There's still a lot of room for improvement, but it basically works,
and we need this to be present before we can do anything much with the
writable-foreign-tables patch. So let's commit it and get on with testing.
