A few places calling fwrite and gzwrite were not setting errno to ENOSPC
when reporting errors, as is customary; this led to some failures being
reported as
"could not write file: Success"
which makes us look silly. Make a few of these places in pg_dump and
pg_basebackup use our customary pattern.

As it stands, this flag is only set when we've successfully sent a
cancel request, not if we get SIGINT and then fail to send a cancel.
However, for almost all callers, that's the Wrong Thing: we'd prefer
to abort processing after control-C even if no cancel could be sent.
As an example, since commit 1d468b9ad "pgbench -i" fails to give up
sending COPY data even after control-C, if the postmaster has been
stopped, which is clearly not what the code intends and not what anyone
would want. (The fact that it keeps going at all is the fault of a
separate bug in libpq, but not letting CancelRequested become set is
clearly not what we want here.)
The sole exception, as far as I can find, is that scripts_parallel.c's
ParallelSlotsGetIdle tries to consume a query result after issuing a
cancel, which of course might not terminate quickly if no cancel
happened. But that behavior was poorly thought out too. No user of
ParallelSlotsGetIdle tries to continue processing after a cancel,
so there is really no point in trying to clear the connection's state.
Moreover this has the same defect as for other users of cancel.c,
that if the cancel request fails for some reason then we end up with
control-C being completely ignored. (On top of that, select_loop failed
to distinguish clearly between SIGINT and other reasons for select(2)
failing, which means that it's possible that the existing code would
think that a cancel has been sent when it hasn't.)
Hence, redefine CancelRequested as simply meaning that SIGINT was
received. We could add a second flag with the other meaning, but
in the absence of any compelling argument why such a flag is needed,
I think it would just offer an opportunity for future callers to
get it wrong. Also remove the consumeQueryResult call in
ParallelSlotsGetIdle's failure exit. In passing, simplify the
API of select_loop.
It would now be possible to re-unify psql's cancel_pressed with
CancelRequested, partly undoing 5d43c3c54. But I'm not really
convinced that that's worth the trouble, so I left psql alone,
other than fixing a misleading comment.
This code is new in v13 (cf a4fd3aa71), so no need for back-patch.
Per investigation of a complaint from Andres Freund.

The preferred terminology has been support "function", not procedure,
for some time, so change that over. The command stays \dAp, since
\dAf is already something else.
Make number of translate_columns elements match the number of output columns.
The only "true" value, which was previously specified, seems to be intended
for opfamily operator "purpose" column. But that column has already translated
values substituted. So, all elements in translate_columns[] should be "false".
This commit changes ORDER BY clause for \dAo and \dAp psql commands in
the following way.
* Operators for the same types are grouped together.
* Same-class operators and procedures are listed before cross-class operators
and procedures.
Modification of ORDER BY clause for \dAp required removing DISTINCT clause,
which doesn't seem to affect anything.

it would misformat lines containing IsA() macros on the assumption
that the IsA() call should be treated like a cast. This improves
some other cases involving field/variable names that match typedefs,

Originally, the names assigned to SLRUs had no purpose other than
being shmem lookup keys, so not a lot of thought went into them.
As of v13, though, we're exposing them in the pg_stat_slru view and
the pg_stat_reset_slru function, so it seems advisable to take a bit
more care. Rename them to names based on the associated on-disk
storage directories (which fortunately we *did* think about, to some
extent; since those are also visible to DBAs, consistency seems like
a good thing). Also rename the associated LWLocks, since those names
are likewise user-exposed now as wait event names.
For the most part I only touched symbols used in the respective modules'
SimpleLruInit() calls, not the names of other related objects. This
renaming could have been taken further, and maybe someday we will do so.
But for now it seems undesirable to change the names of any globally
visible functions or structs, so some inconsistency is unavoidable.
(But I *did* terminate "oldserxid" with prejudice, as I found that
name both unreadable and not descriptive of the SLRU's contents.)
Table 27.12 needs re-alphabetization now, but I'll leave that till
after the other LWLock renamings I have in mind.

Includes some manual cleanup of places that pgindent messed up,
most of which weren't per project style anyway.
Notably, it seems some people didn't absorb the style rules of
commit c9d297751, because there were a bunch of new occurrences
of function calls with a newline just after the left paren, all
with faulty expectations about how the rest of the call would get
indented.
The defect suppressed a Standby Status Update message when bytes flushed
to disk had changed but bytes received had not changed. If
pg_recvlogical then exited with no intervening Standby Status Update,
the next pg_recvlogical repeated already-flushed records. The defect
could also cause superfluous messages, which are functionally harmless.
Back-patch to 9.5 (all supported versions).

pg_recvlogical merely called PQfinish(), so the backend sent messages
after the disconnect. When that caused EPIPE in internal_flush(),
before a LogicalConfirmReceivedLocation(), the next pg_recvlogical would
repeat already-acknowledged records. Whether or not the defect causes
EPIPE, post-disconnect messages could contain an ErrorResponse that the
user should see. One properly ends PGRES_COPY_OUT by repeating
PQgetCopyData() until it returns a negative value. Augment one of the
tests to cover the case of WAL past --endpos. Back-patch to v10, where
commit 7c030783a5 first appeared. Before
that commit, pg_recvlogical never reached PGRES_COPY_OUT.

* Have both physical and logical walsender share a 'xlogreader' state
struct for tracking state. This replaces the existing globals sendSeg
and sendCxt.
* Change WALRead not to receive XLogReaderState->seg and ->segcxt as
separate arguments anymore; just use the ones from 'state'. This is
made possible by the above change.
* have the XLogReader segment_open contract require the callbacks to
install the file descriptor in the state struct themselves instead of
returning it. xlogreader was already ignoring any possible failed
return from the callbacks, relying solely on them never returning.
(This point is not altogether excellent, as it means the callbacks
have to know more of XLogReaderState; but to really improve on that
we would have to pass back error info from the callbacks to
xlogreader. And the complexity would not be saved but instead just
transferred to the callers of WALRead, which would have to learn how
to throw errors from the open_segment callback in addition of, as
currently, from pg_pread.)
* segment_open no longer receives the 'segcxt' as a separate argument,
since it's part of the XLogReaderState argument.

Code review for 0dc8ead463, prompted by a bug closed by 91c40548d5.
XLogReader's system for opening and closing segments had gotten too
complicated, with callbacks being passed at both the XLogReaderAllocate
level (read_page) as well as at the WALRead level (segment_open). This
was confusing and hard to follow, so restructure things so that these
callbacks are passed together at XLogReaderAllocate time, and add
another callback to the set (segment_close) to make it a coherent whole.
Also, ensure XLogReaderState is an argument to all the callbacks, so
that they can grab at the ->private data if necessary.
Document the whole arrangement more clearly.

There were a few different ways to line-wrap the error messages. Make
them all the same, and use placeholders for the actual program names,
to save translation work.
Writing a trailing semicolon in a macro is almost never the right thing,
because you almost always want to write a semicolon after each macro
call instead. (Even if there was some reason to prefer not to, pgindent
would probably make a hash of code formatted that way; so within PG the
rule should basically be "don't do it".) Thus, if we have a semi inside
the macro, the compiler sees "something;;". Much of the time the extra
empty statement is harmless, but it could lead to mysterious syntax
errors at call sites. In perhaps an overabundance of neatnik-ism, let's
run around and get rid of the excess semicolons whereever possible.
The only thing worse than a mysterious syntax error is a mysterious
syntax error that only happens in the back branches; therefore,
backpatch these changes where relevant, which is most of them because
most of these mistakes are old. (The lack of reported problems shows
that this is largely a hypothetical issue, but still, it could bite
us in some future patch.)

When pg_basebackup -R is used, we inject standby.signal into the
tar file for the main tablespace. The proper thing to do is to pad
each file injected into the tar file out to a 512-byte boundary
by appending nulls, but here the file is of length 0 and we add
511 zero bytes. Since 0 is already a multiple of 512, we should
not add any zero bytes. Do that instead.

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.

Since 0d8c9c1, pg_basebackup would generate an error if connected to a
backend version older than 12 where backup manifests are not supported.
Avoiding this error is possible by using the --no-manifest option.
This error handling could be confusing for some users, where patching a
backup script that interacts with multiple backend versions would cause
the addition of --no-manifest to potentially not generate a backup
manifest even for Postgres 13 and newer versions. As we want to
encourage the use of backup manifests as much as possible, this commit
silently disables manifests where not supported, instead of generating
an error.
While on it, rework a bit the code to make it more consistent with the
surroundings when generating the BASE_BACKUP command.
