If an operation requires having coordinator in pg_dist_node and if that
is not the case, then we automatically add the coordinator into
pg_dist_node if user didn't add any worker nodes yet.
However, if user have already added some worker nodes before, we throw
an error. With this commit, we improve the error thrown in that case.
Closes#6423 based on the discussion made there.

PG15 has suppressed some casts on constants when querying foreign
tables.
For example, we can use text to represent a type that's an enum on the
remote side.
A comparison on such a column will get shipped as "var = 'foo'::text".
But there's no enum = text operator on the remote side.
If we leave off the explicit cast, the comparison will work.
Test we behave in the same way with a Citus foreign table

Citus local

PG15 added support for security invoker views. Relevant PG conmit:
7faa5fc84b
These views check the permissions for the underlying tables of the view
invoker user, not the view definer user.
When the view has underlying distributed tables, the queries to the
shards are sent by opening connections with the current user, which is
the view invoker, no matter what the type of the view is. This means
that, for distributed views, they were always behaving like security
invoker views. Check the following issue for more details:
https://github.com/citusdata/citus/issues/6161
So, Citus doesn't fully support security definer views.
However Citus does fully support security invoker views. We add tests to
make sure we cover different cases.

DESCRIPTION: Fixes a bug that causes creating disabled-triggers on
shards as enabled
Since CREATE TRIGGER doesn't have syntax support to specify
whether the trigger should be enabled/disabled, the underlying
PG function (`pg_get_triggerdef()`) that we use to generate the
command to create the trigger is not enough. For this reason, we
append a second command to enable/disable trigger, right after
creating it.
We don't retain explicit extension dependencies set by using
`ALTER trigger DEPENDS ON EXTENSION` commands too, but apparently
right fix for that is to throw an error as in
`PreprocessAlterTriggerDependsStmt()`; so, opened a separate PR
to fix that #6399.

DESCRIPTION: Fixes a bug that prevents retaining columnar table options
after a table-rewrite A fix for this issue: Columnar: options ignored
during ALTER TABLE rewrite #5927
The OID for the temporary table created during ALTER TABLE was not the
same as the original table's OID so the columnar options were not being
applied during rewrite.
The change is that I applied the original table's columnar options to
the new table so that it has the correct options during write. I also
added a test.
Cherry-pick from commit f21cbe68f8
During alter_distributed_table, we create a new table like the
original table but with the altered options.
To retrieve the name of the distribution column, we were using
the attribute syscache of the new table, since we already created
the new table as identical to the original table.
However, the attribute syscaches of these two tables are not
the same if the original table has dropped columns. The reason
is that dropped columns are all still present in the cache.
Hence, for example, the attnos would be different in the syscaches.
So, let's use the attribute syscache of the original table.
In Split, Logical replication logic and ShardCleaner we call
`SendCommandListToWorkerOutsideTransaction` and
`SendOptionalCommandListToWorkerOutsideTransaction` frequently. This
opens new connection for each of those calls, even though we already
have a perfectly good connection lying around.
This PR adds two new APIs
`SendCommandListToWorkerOutsideTransactionWithConnection` and
`SendOptionalCommandListToWorkerOutsideTransactionWithConnection` that
allow sending a list of queries in a transaction over an existing
connection. We also update the callers (Split, ShardCleaner, Logical
Replication) to use these new APIs instead.

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.

As we did for GENERATED STORED columns in #4613, we should not drop
column
default expressions that are not based on sequences from shard relation
since
such expressions need to exist e.g. for foreign key actions.
For the column default expressions that are based on sequences we cannot
do much, so we need to disallow having ON DELETE SET DEFAULT actions on
such columns in a separate PR, see #6339.
Fixes#6318.

Comment from the code is clear on this:
/*
* The statistics objects of the distributed table are not relevant
* for the distributed planning, so we can override it.
*
* Normally, we should not need this. However, the combination of
* Postgres commit 269b532aef55a579ae02a3e8e8df14101570dfd9 and
* Citus function AdjustPartitioningForDistributedPlanning()
* forces us to do this. The commit expects statistics objects
* of partitions to have "inh" flag set properly. Whereas, the
* function overrides "inh" flag. To avoid Postgres to throw error,
* we override statlist such that Postgres does not try to process
* any statistics objects during the standard_planner() on the
* coordinator. In the end, we do not need the standard_planner()
* on the coordinator to generate an optimized plan. We call
* into standard_planner() for other purposes, such as generating the
* relationRestrictionContext here.
*
* AdjustPartitioningForDistributedPlanning() is a hack that we use
* to prevent Postgres' standard_planner() to expand all the partitions
* for the distributed planning when a distributed partitioned table
* is queried. It is required for both correctness and performance
* reasons. Although we can eliminate the use of the function for
* the correctness (e.g., make sure that rest of the planner can handle
* partitions), it's performance implication is hard to avoid. Certain
* planning logic of Citus (such as router or query pushdown) relies
* heavily on the relationRestrictionList. If
* AdjustPartitioningForDistributedPlanning() is removed, all the
* partitions show up in the, causing high planning times for
* such queries.

PG15 introduces `CLUSTER` commands for partitioned tables. Similar to a
`CLUSTER` command with no supplied table names, these commands also can
not be run inside transaction blocks and therefore can not be propagated
in a distributed transaction block with ease. Therefore we raise warnings.

DESCRIPTION: Add a rebalancer that uses background tasks for its
execution
Based on the baclground jobs and tasks introduced in #6296 we implement
a new rebalancer on top of the primitives of background execution. This
allows the user to initiate a rebalance and let Citus execute the long
running steps in the background until completion.
Users can invoke the new background rebalancer with `SELECT
citus_rebalance_start();`. It will output information on its job id and
how to track progress. Also it returns its job id for automation
purposes. If you simply want to wait till the rebalance is done you can
use `SELECT citus_rebalance_wait();`
A running rebalance can be canelled/stopped with `SELECT
citus_rebalance_stop();`.
PG 15 added support for that (d6f96ed94e73052f99a2e545ed17a8b2fdc1fb8a).
We also add support, but we already do not support ON DELETE SET NULL/DEFAULT
for distribution column. So, in essence, we add support for reference tables
and Citus local tables.
The logical replication catchup part for shard splits and shard moves is
very similar. This abstracts most of that similarity away into a single
function. This also improves the logic for non blocking shard splits a
bit, by using faster foreign key creation. It also parallelizes index creation
which shard moves were already doing, but shard splits did not.
DESCRIPTION: Add infrastructure to run long running management operations in background
This infrastructure introduces the primitives of jobs and tasks.
A task consists of a sql statement and an owner. Tasks belong to a
Job and can depend on other tasks from the same job.
When there are either runnable or running tasks we would like to
make sure a bacgrkound task queue monitor process is running. A Task
could be in running state while there is actually no monitor present
due to a database restart or failover. Once the monitor starts it
will reset any running task to its runnable state.
To make sure only one background task queue monitor is ever running
at once it will acquire an advisory lock that self conflicts.
Once a task is done it will find all tasks depending on this task.
After checking that the task doesn't have unmet dependencies it will
transition the task from blocked to runnable state for the task to
be picked up on a subsequent task start.
Currently only one task can be running at a time. This can be
improved upon in later releases without changes to the higher level
API.
The initial goal for this background tasks is to allow a rebalance
to run in the background. This will be implemented in a subsequent PR.
Previously we would create foreign keys to reference table in an extra
fast way at the end of a shard move. This uses that same logic to also
do it for foreign keys between distributed tables.
Fixes#6141
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.
DESCRIPTION:
This PR adds support for 'Deferred Drop' and robust 'Shard Cleanup' for Splits.
Common Infrastructure
This PR introduces new common infrastructure so as any operation that wants robust cleanup of resources can register with the cleaner and have the resources cleaned appropriately based on a specified policy. 'Shard Split' is the first consumer using this new infrastructure.
Note : We only support adding 'shards' as resources to be cleaned-up right now but the framework will be extended to support other resources in future.
Deferred Drop for Split
Deferred Drop Support ensures that shards undergoing split are not dropped inline as part of operation but dropped later when no active read queries are running on shard. This helps with :
Avoids any potential deadlock scenarios that can cause long running Split operation to rollback.
Avoids Split operation blocking writes and then getting blocked (due to running queries on the shard) when trying to drop shards.
Deferred drop is the new default behavior going forward.
Shard Cleaner Extension
Shard Cleaner is a background task responsible for deferred drops in case of 'Move' operations.
The cleaner has been extended to ensure robust cleanup of shards (dummy shards and split children) in case of a failure based on the new infrastructure mentioned above. The cleaner also handles deferred drop for 'Splits'.
TESTING:
New test ''citus_split_shard_by_split_points_deferred_drop' to test deferred drop support.
New test 'failure_split_cleanup' to test shard cleanup with failures in different stages.
Update 'isolation_blocking_shard_split and isolation_non_blocking_shard_split' for deferred drop.
Added non-deferred drop version of existing tests : 'citus_split_shard_no_deferred_drop' and 'citus_non_blocking_splits_no_deferred_drop'
* Fix issue : 6109 Segfault or (assertion failure) is possible when using a SQL function

PG15 allows numeric scale to be negative or greater than precision. This
causes issues and we may end up routing queries to a wrong shard due to
differing hash results after rounding.
Formerly, when specifying NUMERIC(precision, scale), the scale had to be
in the range [0, precision], which was per SQL spec. PG15 extends the
range of allowed scales to [-1000, 1000].
A negative scale implies rounding before the decimal point. For
example, a column might be declared with a scale of -3 to round values
to the nearest thousand. Note that the display scale remains
non-negative, so in this case the display scale will be zero, and all
digits before the decimal point will be displayed.

Pre PG15, renaming child triggers on partitions is allowed. When
creating a trigger in a distributed parent partitioned table, the
triggers on the shards of the partitions have the same name with
the triggers on the corresponding parent shards of the parent
table. Therefore, they don't have the same appended shard id as
the shard id of the partition. Hence, when trying to rename a
child trigger on a partition of a distributed table, we can't
correctly find the triggers on the shards of the partition in
order to rename them since we append a different shard id to the
name of the trigger. Since we can't find the trigger we get a
misleading error of inexistent trigger.
In this commit we prohibit renaming child triggers on distributed
partitions altogether.
PRE PG15, Renaming the parent triggers on partitioned tables doesn't
recurse to renaming the child triggers on the partitions as well.
In PG15, Renaming triggers on partitioned tables
recurses to renaming the triggers on the partitions as well.
Add an upgrade test to make sure we are not breaking anything
with distributed triggers on distributed partitioned tables.
