In this commit, we're introducing a way to prevent CTE inlining via a GUC.
The GUC is used in all the tests where PG 11 and PG 12 tests would diverge
otherwise.
Note that, in PG 12, the restriction information for CTEs are generated. It
means that for some queries involving CTEs, Citus planner (router planner/
pushdown planner) may behave differently. So, via the GUC, we prevent
tests to diverge on PG 11 vs PG 12.
When we drop PG 11 support, we should get rid of the GUC, and mark
relevant ctes as MATERIALIZED, which does the same thing.
Previously we checked if an operator is in pg_catalog, and if it wasn't we prefixed it with namespace in worker queries. This can have a huge impact on performance of physical planner when using custom data types.
This happened regardless of current search_path config, because Citus overrides the search path in get_query_def_extended(). When we do so, the check for existence of the operator in current search path in generate_operator_name() fails for any operators outside pg_catalog. This means that nothing gets cached, and in the following calls we will again recheck the system tables for existence of the operators, which took an additional 40-50ms for some of the usecases we were seeing.
In this change we skip the pg_catalog check, and always prefix the operator with its namespace.
