DESCRIPTION: Fix reference table lock contention
Dropping and creating reference tables unintentionally blocked on each other due to the use of an ExclusiveLock for both the Drop and conditionally copying existing reference tables to (new) nodes.
The patch does the following:
- Lower lock lever for dropping (reference) tables to `ShareLock` so they don't self conflict
- Treat reference tables and distributed tables equally and acquire the colocation lock when dropping any table that is in a colocation group
- Perform the precondition check for copying reference tables twice, first time with a lower lock that doesn't conflict with anything. Could have been a NoLock, however, in preparation for dropping a colocation group, it is an `AccessShareLock`
During normal operation the first check will always pass and we don't have to escalate that lock. Making it that we won't be blocked on adding and remove reference tables. Only after a node addition the first `create_reference_table` will still need to acquire an `ExclusiveLock` on the colocation group to perform the copy.
AlterTableStmt's relkind field is changed into objtype
New AlterTableStmtObjType macro uses the appropriate one

- Add support for CRETE INDEX ... ON ONLY: Before that commit we were not sending "ONLY" option to the worker nodes at all. With this commit, "ONLY" parameter will be sent to the worker nodes if it is necessary. (#4938)
- Add support for ALTER INDEX ... ATTACH PARTITION: Attach child_index to parent_index by creating same inheritance on shard level in addition to table level. (#4980)
Before this commit, creating a partition after a DROP column
on the parent (position before dist. key) was leading to
partition to have the wrong distribution column.

This commit adds support for long partition names for distributed tables:
- ALTER TABLE dist_table ATTACH PARTITION ..
- CREATE TABLE .. PARTITION OF dist_table ..
Note: create_distributed_table UDF does not support long table and
partition names, and is not covered in this commit
For certaion purposes, we drop and recreate the foreign
keys. As we acquire exclusive locks on the tables in between
drop and re-create, we can safely skip validation phase of
the foreign keys. The reason is purely being performance as
foreign key validation could take a long value.
When enabled any foreign keys between local tables and reference
tables supported by converting the local table to a citus local
table.
When the coordinator is not in the metadata, the logic is disabled
as foreign keys are not allowed in this configuration.
Because master_add_node(or others) might acquire ExclusiveLock
and their initiated sessions may call CoordinatorAddedAsWorkerNode().
With this we prevent potential deadlocks.
This commit brings following features:
Foreign key support from citus local tables to reference tables
* Foreign key support from reference tables to citus local tables
(only with RESTRICT & NO ACTION behavior)
* ALTER TABLE ENABLE/DISABLE trigger command support
* CREATE/DROP/ALTER trigger command support
and disallows:
* ALTER TABLE ATTACH/DETACH PARTITION commands
* CREATE TABLE <postgres table> ATTACH PARTITION <citus local table>
commands
* Foreign keys from postgres tables to citus local tables
(the other way was already disallowed)
for citus local tables.
Introduce table entry utility functions
Citus table cache entry utilities are introduced so that we can easily
extend existing functionality with minimum changes, specifically changes
to these functions. For example IsNonDistributedTableCacheEntry can be
extended for citus local tables without the need to scan the whole
codebase and update each relevant part.
* Introduce utility functions to find the type of tables
A table type can be a reference table, a hash/range/append distributed
table. Utility methods are created so that we don't have to worry about
how a table is considered as a reference table etc. This also makes it
easy to extend the table types.
* Add IsCitusTableType utilities
* Rename IsCacheEntryCitusTableType -> IsCitusTableTypeCacheEntry
* Change citus table types in some checks
Calling ErrorIfUnsupportedConstraint was still giving errors on Semmle. This
makes sure that we check for NULL at runtime. This way we can safely ignore all
errors created by this function.
Semmle reported quite some places where we use a value that could be NULL. Most of these are not actually a real issue, but better to be on the safe side with these things and make the static analysis happy.
Deparsing and parsing a query can be heavy on CPU. When locally executing
the query we don't need to do this in theory most of the time.
This PR is the first step in allowing to skip deparsing and parsing
the query in these cases, by lazily creating the query string and
storing the query in the task. Future commits will make use of this and
not deparse and parse the query anymore, but use the one from the task
directly.
