The original implementation of GPIDs didn't work correctly when using
`pg_dist_poolinfo` together with PgBouncer. The reason is that it
assumed that once a connection was made to a worker, the originating
GPID should stay the same for ever. But when pg_dist_poolinfo is used
this isn't the case, because the same connection on the worker might be
used by different backends of the coordinator.
This fixes that issue by updating the GPID whenever a new application
name is set on a connection. This is the only thing that's needed,
because PgBouncer already sets the application name correctly on the
server connection whenever a client is updated.
Use Citus helper UDFs by default in iso tests
PostgreSQL isolation test infrastructure uses some UDFs to detect
whether concurrent sessions block each other. Citus implements
alternatives to that UDF so that we are able to detect and report
distributed transactions that get blocked on the worker nodes as well.
We needed to explicitly replace PG helper functions with Citus
implementations in each isolation file. Now we replace them by default.
Currently in mx isolation tests the setup is the same except the creation of tables. Isolation framework lets us define multiple `setup` stages, therefore I thought that we can put the `mx_setup` to one file and prepend this prior to running tests.
How the structure works:
- cpp is used before running isolation tests to preprocess spec files. This way we can include any file we want to. Currently this is used to include mx common part.
- spec files are put to `/build/specs` for clear separation between generated files and template files
- a symbolic link is created for `/expected` in `build/expected/`.
- when running isolation tests, as the `inputdir`, `build` is passed so it runs the spec files from `build/specs` and checks the expected output from `build/expected`.
`/specs` is renamed as `/spec` because postgres first look at the `specs` file under current directory, so this is renamed to avoid that since we are running the isolation tests from `build/specs` now.
Note: now we use `//` instead of `#` in comments in spec files, because cpp interprets `#` as a directive and it ignores `//`.
