38fac9c1f6 Sync our copy of the timezone library with IANA release tzcode2020c.
This changes zic's default output format from "-b fat" to "-b slim".
We were already using "slim" in v13/HEAD, so those branches drop
the explicit -b switch in the Makefiles.  Instead, add an explicit
"-b fat" in v12 and before, so that we don't change the output file
format in those branches.  (This is perhaps excessively conservative,
but we decided not to do so in a12079109, and I'll stick with that.)

Other non-cosmetic changes are to drop support for zic's long-obsolete
"-y" switch, and to ensure that strftime() does not change errno
unless it fails.

As usual with tzcode changes, back-patch to all supported branches.

696cb6d8f6 MSVC: Avoid warning when testing a TAP suite without PROVE_FLAGS.
Commit 7be5d8df1f surfaced the logic
error, which had no functional implications, by adding "use warnings".
The buildfarm always customizes PROVE_FLAGS, so the warning did not
appear there.  Back-patch to 9.5 (all supported versions).

8de137017a Fix MSVC installations with multiple "configure" files detected
When installing binaries and libraries using the MSVC installation
routines, the operation gets done after moving to the root folder, whose
location is detected by checking if "configure" exists two times in a
row.  So, calling the installation script from src/tools/msvc/ with an
extra "configure" file four levels up the root path of the code tree
causes the execution to go further up, leading to a failure in finding
the builds.  This commit fixes the issue by moving to the root folder of
the code tree only once, when necessary.

3f3ab184c6 Improve placement of "display name" comment in win32_tzmap[] entries.
Sticking this comment at the end of the last line was a bad idea: it's
not particularly readable, and it tempts pgindent to mess with line
breaks within the comment, which in turn reveals that win32tzlist.pl's
clean_displayname() does the wrong thing to clean up such line breaks.
While that's not hard to fix, there's basically no excuse for this
arrangement to begin with, especially since it makes the table layout
needlessly vary across back branches with different pgindent rules.
Let's just put the comment inside the braces, instead.

This commit just moves and reformats the comments, and updates
win32tzlist.pl to match; there's no actual data change.

Per odd-looking results from Juan José Santamaría Flecha.
Back-patch, since the point is to make win32_tzmap[] look the
same in all supported branches again.

ad458d0cd9 Improve handling of NULLs in KNN-GiST and KNN-SP-GiST
This commit improves subject in two ways:

 * It removes ugliness of 02f90879e7, which stores distance values and null
   flags in two separate arrays after GISTSearchItem struct.  Instead we pack
   both distance value and null flag in IndexOrderByDistance struct.  Alignment
   overhead should be negligible, because we typically deal with at most few
   "col op const" expressions in ORDER BY clause.
 * It fixes handling of "col op NULL" expression in KNN-SP-GiST.  Now, these
   expression are not passed to support functions, which can't deal with them.
   Instead, NULL result is implicitly assumed.  It future we may decide to
   teach support functions to deal with NULL arguments, but current solution is
   bugfix suitable for backpatch.

tests which can be consumed by prove when attempting to run TAP tests on

d908a0087e Add support for OpenSSL 1.1.0 and newer versions in MSVC scripts
Up to now, the MSVC build scripts are able to support only one fixed
version of OpenSSL, and they lacked logic to detect the version of
OpenSSL a given compilation of Postgres is linking to (currently 1.0.2,
the latest LTS of upstream which will be EOL'd at the end of 2019).

This commit adds more logic to detect the version of OpenSSL used by a
build and makes use of it to add support for compilation with OpenSSL
1.1.0 which requires a new set of compilation flags to work properly.

The supported OpenSSL installers have changed their library layer with
various library renames with the upgrade to 1.1.0, making the logic a
bit more complicated.  The scripts are now able to adapt to the new
world order.

5c0fee0be2 In the pg_upgrade test suite, don't write to src/test/regress.
When this suite runs installcheck, redirect file creations from
src/test/regress to src/bin/pg_upgrade/tmp_check/regress.  This closes a
race condition in "make -j check-world".  If the pg_upgrade suite wrote
to a given src/test/regress/results file in parallel with the regular
src/test/regress invocation writing it, a test failed spuriously.  Even
without parallelism, in "make -k check-world", the suite finishing
second overwrote the other's regression.diffs.  This revealed test
"largeobject" assuming @abs_builddir@ is getcwd(), so fix that, too.

Buildfarm client REL_10, released fifty-four days ago, supports saving
regression.diffs from its new location.  When an older client reports a
pg_upgradeCheck failure, it will no longer include regression.diffs.

This reverts commit f57b94d9d0.

Per discussion, it's not desirable to add valgrind suppressions for
outside our own code base (e.g. glibc in this case), especially when
the suppressions may be platform-specific. There are better ways to
deal with that, e.g. by providing local suppressions.

f57b94d9d0 Add valgrind suppressions for wcsrtombs optimizations
wcsrtombs (called through wchar2char from common functions like lower,
upper, etc.) uses various optimizations that may look like access to
uninitialized data, triggering valgrind reports.

For example AVX2 instructions load data in 256-bit chunks, and  gconv
does something similar with 32-bit chunks.  This is faster than accessing
the bytes one by one, and the uninitialized part of the buffer is not
actually used. So suppress the bogus reports.

The exact stack depends on possible optimizations - it might be AVX, SSE
(as in the report by Aleksander Alekseev) or something else. Hence the
last frame is wildcarded, to deal with this.

Backpatch all the way back to 9.4.

f171cbe0d9 Fix up ecpg's configuration so it handles "long long int" in MSVC builds.
Although configure-based builds correctly define HAVE_LONG_LONG_INT when
appropriate (in both pg_config.h and ecpg_config.h), builds using the MSVC
scripts failed to do so.  This currently has no impact on the backend,
since it uses that symbol nowhere; but it does prevent ecpg from
supporting "long long int".  Fix that.

Also, adjust Solution.pm so that in the constructed ecpg_config.h file,
the "#if (_MSC_VER > 1200)" covers only the LONG_LONG_INT-related
#defines, not the whole file.  AFAICS this was a thinko on somebody's
part: ENABLE_THREAD_SAFETY should always be defined in Windows builds,
and in branches using USE_INTEGER_DATETIMES, the setting of that shouldn't
depend on the compiler version either.  If I'm wrong, I imagine the
buildfarm will say so.

91f3ffc524 Empty search_path in Autovacuum and non-psql/pgbench clients.
This makes the client programs behave as documented regardless of the
connect-time search_path and regardless of user-created objects.  Today,
a malicious user with CREATE permission on a search_path schema can take
control of certain of these clients' queries and invoke arbitrary SQL
functions under the client identity, often a superuser.  This is
exploitable in the default configuration, where all users have CREATE
privilege on schema "public".

This changes behavior of user-defined code stored in the database, like
pg_index.indexprs and pg_extension_config_dump().  If they reach code
bearing unqualified names, "does not exist" or "no schema has been
selected to create in" errors might appear.  Users may fix such errors
by schema-qualifying affected names.  After upgrading, consider watching
server logs for these errors.

The --table arguments of src/bin/scripts clients have been lax; for
example, "vacuumdb -Zt pg_am\;CHECKPOINT" performed a checkpoint.  That
now fails, but for now, "vacuumdb -Zt 'pg_am(amname);CHECKPOINT'" still
performs a checkpoint.

470de6a24d MSVC 2012+: Permit linking to 32-bit, MinGW-built libraries.
Notably, this permits linking to the 32-bit Perl binaries advertised on
perl.org, namely Strawberry Perl and ActivePerl.  This has a side effect
of permitting linking to binaries built with obsolete MSVC versions.

By default, MSVC 2012 and later require a "safe exception handler table"
in each binary.  MinGW-built, 32-bit DLLs lack the relevant exception
handler metadata, so linking to them failed with error LNK2026.  Restore
the semantics of MSVC 2010, which omits the table from a given binary if
some linker input lacks metadata.  This has no effect on 64-bit builds
or on MSVC 2010 and earlier.  Back-patch to 9.3 (all supported
versions).

1c1a572d05 MSVC: Test whether 32-bit Perl needs -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T.
Commits 5a5c2feca3 and
b5178c5d08 introduced support for modern
MSVC-built, 32-bit Perl, but they broke use of MinGW-built, 32-bit Perl
distributions like Strawberry Perl and modern ActivePerl.  Perl has no
robust means to report whether it expects a -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T ABI, so
test this.  Back-patch to 9.3 (all supported versions).

The chief alternative was a heuristic of adding -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T when
$Config{gccversion} is nonempty.  That banks on every gcc-built Perl
using the same ABI.  gcc could change its default ABI the way MSVC once
did, and one could build Perl with gcc and the non-default ABI.

The GNU make build system could benefit from a similar test, without
which it does not support MSVC-built Perl.  For now, just add a comment.
Most users taking the special step of building Perl with MSVC probably
build PostgreSQL with MSVC.

Make that one consistent too.  Back-patch, like the previous patch.

bff216d878 Further tweaks to compiler flags for PL/Perl on Windows.
It now emerges that we can only rely on Perl to tell us we must use
-D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T if it's Perl 5.13.4 or later.  For older versions,
revert to our previous practice of assuming we need that symbol in
all 32-bit Windows builds.  This is not ideal, but inquiring into
which compiler version Perl was built with seems far too fragile.
In any case, we had not previously had complaints about these old
Perl versions, so let's assume this is Good Enough.  (It's still
better than the situation ante commit 5a5c2feca, in that at least
the effects are confined to PL/Perl rather than the whole PG build.)

Back-patch to all supported versions, like 5a5c2feca and predecessors.

1621a75531 Absorb -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T switch from Perl, if relevant.
Commit 3c163a7fc's original choice to ignore all #define symbols whose
names begin with underscore turns out to be too simplistic.  On Windows,
some Perl installations are built with -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T, and we must
absorb that or we get the wrong result for sizeof(PerlInterpreter).

This effectively re-reverts commit ef58b87df, which injected that symbol
in a hacky way, making it apply to all of Postgres not just PL/Perl.
More significantly, it did so on *all* 32-bit Windows builds, even when
the Perl build to be used did not select this option; so that it fails
to work properly with some newer Perl builds.

By making this change, we would be introducing an ABI break in 32-bit
Windows builds; but fortunately we have not used type time_t in any
exported Postgres APIs in a long time.  So it should be OK, both for
PL/Perl itself and for third-party extensions, if an extension library
is built with a different _USE_32BIT_TIME_T setting than the core code.

Patch by me, based on research by Ashutosh Sharma and Robert Haas.
Back-patch to all supported branches, as commit 3c163a7fc was.

af1f182592 Silence warning from modern perl about unescaped braces
Back-patch commit 76a1c97bf2 into
the older branches (9.5 and before).  This is needed because perl
5.26 and later treats the case as an error not just a warning.

Original patch by Andrew Dunstan, need for back-patch noted by
Ashutosh Sharma

df52739ce3 PL/Perl portability fix: absorb relevant -D switches from Perl.
Back-patch of commit 3c163a7fc7,
which see for more info.

Also throw in commit b4cc35fbb7,
so Coverity doesn't whine about the back branches.

Ashutosh Sharma, some adjustments by me
