DESCRIPTION: Enable adding FOREIGN KEY constraints on Citus tables
without a name
This PR enables adding a foreign key to a distributed/reference/Citus
local table without specifying the name of the constraint, e.g. `ALTER
TABLE items ADD FOREIGN KEY (user_id) REFERENCES users (id);`
Given that we drop DEFAULT nextval('sequence') expressions from
shard relation columns, allowing `ON DELETE/UPDATE SET DEFAULT`
on such columns might cause inserting NULL values as a result
of a delete/update operation.
For this reason, we disallow ON DELETE/UPDATE SET DEFAULT actions
on columns that default to sequences.
DESCRIPTION: Disallows having ON DELETE/UPDATE SET DEFAULT actions on
columns that default to sequences
Fixes#6339.
Introduces a new GUC named citus.skip_constraint_validation, which basically skips constraint validation when set to on.
For some several places that we hack to skip the foreign key validation phase, now we use this GUC.
* Remove if conditions with PG_VERSION_NUM < 13
* Remove server_above_twelve(&eleven) checks from tests
* Fix tests
* Remove pg12 and pg11 alternative test output files
* Remove pg12 specific normalization rules
* Some more if conditions in the code
* Change RemoteCollationIdExpression and some pg12/pg13 comments
* Remove some more normalization rules
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.

are sequentialized if there is a foreign constraint from
a distributed table to a reference table on the affected relations
by the above commands.
We have one replication of reference table for each node. Therefore all problems with
replication factor > 1 also applies to reference table. As a solution we will not allow
foreign keys on reference tables. It is not possible to define foreign key from, to or
between reference tables.
With this PR, we add foreign key support to ALTER TABLE commands. For now,
we only support foreign constraint creation via ALTER TABLE query, if it
is only subcommand in ALTER TABLE subcommand list.
We also only allow foreign key creation if replication factor is 1.
At the moment, we do not support foreign constraints if replication factor is greater
than 1. However foreign constraints can be used in cloud with high availability option.
Therefore we do not want to create an impression such that foreign constraints with
high availability is not supported at all. We call users to action with this error
message.
With this change, we now push down foreign key constraints created during CREATE TABLE
statements. We also start to send foreign constraints during shard move along with
other DDL statements
