DESCRIPTION: Normalize \d+ output in PG18 by filtering “Not-null
constraints” blocks
fixes#8095
**PR Description**
Postgres 18 started representing column `NOT NULL` as named constraints
in `pg_constraint`, and `psql \d+` now prints them under a `Not-null
constraints:` section. This caused extra diffs in our regression tests.
14e87ffa5c
This PR updates the normalization rules to strip those sections during
diff filtering by adding two regex rules:
* remove the `Not-null constraints:` header
* remove any indented constraint lines ending in `_not_null`
- changes in ruleutils_11.c is reflected
- vacuum statement api change is handled. We now allow
multi-table vacuum commands.
- some other function header changes are reflected
- api conflicts between PG11 and earlier versions
are handled by adding shims in version_compat.h
- various regression tests are fixed due output and
functionality in PG1
- no change is made to support new features in PG11
they need to be handled by new commit
This commit is intended to be a base for supporting declarative partitioning
on distributed tables. Here we add the following utility functions and their
unit tests:
* Very basic functions including differnentiating partitioned tables and
partitions, listing the partitions
* Generating the PARTITION BY (expr) and adding this to the DDL events
of partitioned tables
* Ability to generate text representations of the ranges for partitions
* Ability to generate the `ALTER TABLE parent_table ATTACH PARTITION
partition_table FOR VALUES value_range`
* Ability to apply add shard ids to the above command using
`worker_apply_inter_shard_ddl_command()`
* Ability to generate `ALTER TABLE parent_table DETACH PARTITION`
