DESCRIPTION: Fixes a bug in deparsing of shard query in case of
"output-table column" name conflict
If an `ORDER BY` item in `SELECT` is a bare identifier, the parser
_first seeks it as an output column name_ of the `SELECT` (for SQL92
compatibility). However, ruleutils.c is expecting the SQL99
interpretation _where such a name is an input column name_. So it's
possible to produce an incorrect display of a view in the (admittedly
pretty ill-advised) case where some other column is renamed in the
`SELECT` output list to match an `ORDER BY` column.
The `DISTINCT ON` expressions are interpreted using the same rules as
for `ORDER BY`.
We had an issue reported that actually uses `DISTINCT ON`: #7684
Since Citus uses ruleutils deparsing logic to create the shard queries,
it would not
table-qualify the column names as needed.
PG17 fixed this https://github.com/postgres/postgres/commit/a7eb633563c
by table-qualifying such names in the dumped view text. Therefore,
Citus doesn't reproduce the issue in PG17, since PG17 table-qualifies
the column names when needed, and the produced shard queries are
correct.
This PR applies the PG17 patch to `ruleutils_15.c` and `ruleutils_16.c`.
Even though we generally try to avoid modifying the ruleutils files, in
this case
we are applying a Postgres patch that `ruleutils_17.c` already has:
