DESCRIPTION: This change starts a maintenance deamon at the time of
server start if there is a designated main database.
This is the code flow:
1. User designates a main database:
`ALTER SYSTEM SET citus.main_db = "myadmindb";`
2. When postmaster starts, in _PG_Init, citus calls
`InitializeMaintenanceDaemonForMainDb`
This function registers a background worker to run
`CitusMaintenanceDaemonMain `with `databaseOid = 0 `
3. `CitusMaintenanceDaemonMain ` takes some special actions when
databaseOid is 0:
- Gets the citus.main_db value.
- Connects to the citus.main_db
- Now the `MyDatabaseId `is available, creates a hash entry for it.
- Then follows the same control flow as for a regular db,
PG16 compatibility - Part 2
Part 1 provided successful compilation against pg16beta2.

This PR provides ruleutils changes with pg16beta2 and successful CREATE EXTENSION command.
Note that more changes are needed in order to have successful regression tests.
More commits are coming soon ...
For any_value changes, I referred to this commit
8ef94dc1f5
where we did something similar for PG14 support.
Similar to #5897, one more step for running Citus with PG 15.
This PR at least make Citus run with PG 15. I have not tried running the tests with PG 15.
Shmem changes are based on 4f2400cb3f
Compile breaks are mostly due to #6008
This includes:
(1) Wrap everything inside a StartTransactionCommand()/CommitTransactionCommand().
This is so we can access the database. This also switches to a new memory context
and releases it, so we don't have to do our own memory management.
(2) LockCitusExtension() so the extension cannot be dropped or created concurrently.
(3) Check CitusHasBeenLoaded() && CheckCitusVersion() before doing any work.
(4) Do not PG_TRY() inside a loop.
Adds ```citus.enable_statistics_collection``` GUC variable, which ```true``` by default, unless built without libcurl. If statistics collection is enabled, sends basic usage data to Citus servers every 24 hours.
The data that is collected consists of:
- Citus version
- OS name & release
- Hardware Id
- Number of tables, rounded to next power of 2
- Size of data, rounded to next power of 2
- Number of workers
With this commit, the maintenance deamon starts to check for
distributed deadlocks.
We also introduced a GUC variable (distributed_deadlock_detection_factor)
whose value is multiplied with Postgres' deadlock_timeout. Setting
it to -1 disables the distributed deadlock detection.
