Mark existing objects that are not included in distributed object infrastructure
in older versions of Citus (but now should be) as distributed, after updating
Citus successfully.
DESCRIPTION: Provide a GUC to turn of the new dependency propagation functionality
In the case the dependency propagation functionality introduced in 9.0 causes issues to a cluster of a user they can turn it off almost completely. The only dependency that will still be propagated and kept track of is the schema to emulate the old behaviour.
GUC to change is `citus.enable_object_propagation`. When set to `false` the functionality will be mostly turned off. Be aware that objects marked as distributed in `pg_dist_object` will still be kept in the catalog as a distributed object. Alter statements to these objects will not be propagated to workers and may cause desynchronisation.
DESCRIPTION: Refactor ensure schema exists to dependency exists
Historically we only supported schema's as table dependencies to be created on the workers before a table gets distributed. This PR puts infrastructure in place to walk pg_depend to figure out which dependencies to create on the workers. Currently only schema's are supported as objects to create before creating a table.
We also keep track of dependencies that have been created in the cluster. When we add a new node to the cluster we use this catalog to know which objects need to be created on the worker.
Side effect of knowing which objects are already distributed is that we don't have debug messages anymore when creating schema's that are already created on the workers.
