create_distributed_function(function_name,
distribution_arg_name,
colocate_with text)
This UDF did not allow colocate_with parameters when there were no
disttribution_arg_name supplied. This commit changes the behaviour to
allow missing distribution_arg_name parameters when the function should
be colocated with a reference table.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes a problem when adding a new node due to tables referenced in a functions body
Fixes#3378
It was reported that `master_add_node` would fail if a distributed function has a table name referenced in its declare section of the body. By default postgres validates the body of a function on creation. This is not a problem in the normal case as tables are replicated to the workers when we distribute functions.
However when a new node is added we first create dependencies on the workers before we try to create any tables, and the original tables get created out of bound when the metadata gets synced to the new node. This causes the function body validator to raise an error the table is not on the worker.
To mitigate this issue we set `check_function_bodies` to `off` right before we are creating the function.
The added test shows this does resolve the issue. (issue can be reproduced on the commit without the fix)
