Tomas Vondra b663a41363 Implement support for bulk inserts in postgres_fdw
Extends the FDW API to allow batching inserts into foreign tables. That
is usually much more efficient than inserting individual rows, due to
high latency for each round-trip to the foreign server.

It was possible to implement something similar in the regular FDW API,
but it was inconvenient and there were issues with reporting the number
of actually inserted rows etc. This extends the FDW API with two new
functions:

* GetForeignModifyBatchSize - allows the FDW picking optimal batch size

* ExecForeignBatchInsert - inserts a batch of rows at once

Currently, only INSERT queries support batching. Support for DELETE and
UPDATE may be added in the future.

This also implements batching for postgres_fdw. The batch size may be
specified using "batch_size" option both at the server and table level.

The initial patch version was written by me, but it was rewritten and
improved in many ways by Takayuki Tsunakawa.

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:

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
