9c2fa5b6ab ltree: Fix overflows with lquery parsing
The lquery parser in contrib/ltree/ had two overflow problems:
- A single lquery level with many OR-separated variants (e.g.,
'label1|label2|...'), could cause an overflow of totallen, this being
stored as a uint16, meaning a maximum value of UINT16_MAX or 65k.  Each
variant contributes MAXALIGN(LVAR_HDRSIZE + len) bytes.  With enough
long variants, the value would wraparound.  This would corrupt the data
written by LQL_NEXT(), leading to a stack corruption, most likely
translating into a crash, but it would allow incorrect memory access.
- numvar, labelled as a uint16, counts the number of OR-variants in a
single level, and it is incremented without bounds checking.  With more
than PG_UINT16_MAX (65k) variants in a single level, and a minimum of
131kB of input data, it would wrap to 0.  When a (wildcard) '*' is
used, this would change the query results silently.

For both issues, a set of overflows checks are added to guard against
these problematic patterns.

The first issue has been reported by the three people listed below,
affecting v16 and newer versions due to b1665bf01e.  Its coding was
still unsafe in v14 and v15.  The second issue affects all the stable
branches; I have bumped into while reviewing the code of the module.

34c18a2255 postgres_fdw: Fix handling of abort-cleanup-failed connections.
As connections that failed abort cleanup can't safely be further used,
if a remote query tries to get such a connection, we reject it.
Previously, this rejection involved dropping the connection if it was
open, without accounting for the possibility of open cursors using it,
causing a server crash when such an open cursor tried to use an
already-dropped connection, as a cursor-handling function
(create_cursor, fetch_more_data, or close_cursor) was called on a freed
PGconn.  To fix, delay dropping failed connections until abort cleanup
of the main transaction, to ensure open cursors using such a connection
can safely refer to the PGconn for it.

Oversight in commit 8bf58c0d9.

bab4f7fa56 Consider collation when proving subquery uniqueness
rel_is_distinct_for()'s RTE_SUBQUERY branch passed only the equality
operator from each join clause to query_is_distinct_for(), discarding
the operator's input collation.  query_is_distinct_for() then verified
opfamily compatibility but never checked collations, so a DISTINCT /
GROUP BY / set-op operating under one collation was trusted to prove
uniqueness for a comparison performed under an unrelated collation.
As with the recent fix in relation_has_unique_index_for(), this is
unsound for nondeterministic collations and yields wrong query results
in any optimization that consumes the proof.

Fix by carrying each clause's operator input collation into
query_is_distinct_for() and validating it at every check-site against
the subquery target expression's collation.

Back-patch to all supported branches.  query_is_distinct_for() is
declared in an installed header, so on stable branches the existing
two-list signature is retained as a thin wrapper that forwards to a
new collation-aware entry point; external callers continue to receive
the historical collation-blind answer.

872c9fae78 Consider collation when proving uniqueness from unique indexes
relation_has_unique_index_for() has long had an XXX noting that it
doesn't check collations when matching a unique index's columns
against equality clauses.  This was benign as long as all collations
in play reduced to the same notion of equality, but has been incorrect
since nondeterministic collations were introduced in PG 12: a unique
index under a deterministic collation does not prove uniqueness under
a nondeterministic collation, nor vice versa.

The consequence is wrong query results for any planner optimization
that consumes the faulty proof, including inner-unique join execution
(which stops the inner search after the first match per outer row),
useless-left-join removal, semijoin-to-innerjoin reduction, and
self-join elimination.

Fix by requiring the index's collation to agree on equality with the
clause's input collation.  Two collations agree on equality if either
is InvalidOid (denoting a non-collation-sensitive operation, which
cannot conflict with the other side), if they have the same OID, or if
both are deterministic: by definition a deterministic collation treats
two strings as equal iff they are byte-wise equal (see CREATE
COLLATION), so any two deterministic collations share the same
equality relation and the uniqueness proof carries over.  Any mismatch
involving a nondeterministic collation is rejected.

Back-patch to all supported branches; the bug has existed since
nondeterministic collations were introduced in PG 12.

ca259b0840 Mark modified the FSM buffer as dirty during recovery
The XLogRecordPageWithFreeSpace function updates the freespace map (FSM) data
while replaying data-level WAL records during the recovery. If the FSM block
is updated, it needs to be marked as modified. Currently, this is done with
the MarkBufferDirtyHint call (as in all other cases for modifying FSM data).
However, in the recovery context, this function will actually do nothing if
checksums are enabled. It's assumed that the page should not be dirtied
during recovery while modifying hints to protect against torn pages, since no
new WAL data can be generated at this point to store FPI.

Such logic does not seem fully aligned with the FSM case, as its blocks could
be simply zeroed if a checksum mismatch is detected. Currently, changes to an
FSM block could be lost if each change to that block occurs infrequently
enough to allow it to be evicted from the cache. To persist the change, the
modification needs to be performed while the FSM block is still kept in
buffers and marked as dirty after receiving its FPI. If the block has already
been cleaned, the change won't be persisted, so stored FSM blocks may remain
in an obsolete state.

If a large number of discrepancies between the data in leaf FSM blocks and the
actual data blocks accumulate on the replica server, this could cause
significant delays in insert operations after switchover. Such an insert
operation may need to visit many data blocks marked as having sufficient
space in the FSM, only to discover that the information is incorrect and the
FSM records need to be corrected. In a heavily trafficked insert-only table
with many concurrent clients performing inserts, this has been observed to
cause several-second stalls, causing visible application malfunction. The
desire to avoid such cases was the reason behind the commit ab7dbd681, which
introduced an update of FSM data during the heap_xlog_visible invocation.
However, an update to the FSM data on the standby side could be lost due to a
missing 'dirty' flag, so there is still a possibility that a large number of
FSM records will contain incorrect data. Note that having a zeroed FSM page
in such a case (due to a checksum mismatch) is preferable, as a zero value
will be interpreted as an indication of full data blocks, and the inserter
will be routed to the next FSM block or to the end of the table.

Given that FSM is ready to handle torn page writes and
XLogRecordPageWithFreeSpace is called only during the recovery, there seems
to be no reason to use MarkBufferDirtyHint here instead of a regular
MarkBufferDirty call.

76d15a7ee9 Fix attnum remapping in generateClonedExtStatsStmt()
When cloning extended statistics via CREATE TABLE ... LIKE ... INCLUDING
STATISTICS, stxkeys holds attribute numbers from the source (parent)
table, but get_attname() was being called with the child relation's
OID.  If the parent has dropped columns, the child's attribute numbers
are renumbered sequentially and no longer match, so the lookup either
returns the wrong column name (silent corruption) or errors out when
the attnum does not exist in the child.

Fix it by remapping the parent attnum through attmap before the lookup,
consistent with how expression statistics are already handled a few
lines below.

Add a regression test covering both manifestations: a 3-column parent
where the stale attnum refers to no child column (cache-lookup error),
and a 4-column parent where the stale attnum silently refers to the
wrong child column.

76cdf922b0 Suppress "has no symbols" linker warnings on macOS.

    ranlib: warning: 'libpgport_shlib.a(pg_popcount_x86.c.o)' has no symbols

To fix, add a dummy symbol to files that may otherwise have none.
Per project policy, this is a candidate for back-patching into

622f8b5301 Fix incorrect logic for hashed IN / NOT IN with non-strict operators
ExecEvalHashedScalarArrayOp(), when using a strict equality function,
performs a short-circuit when looking up NULL values.  When the function
is non-strict, the code incorrectly looked up the hash table for a
zero-valued Datum, which could have resulted in an accidental true
return if the hash table contained zero valued Datum, or could result
in a crash for non-byval types.

Here we fix this by adding an extra step when we build the hash table to
check what the result of a NULL lookup would be.  This requires looping
over the array and checking what the non-hashed version of the code
would do.  We cache the results of that in the expression so that we can
reuse the result any time we're asked to search for a NULL value.

It's important to note that non-strict equality functions are free to
treat any NULL value as equal to any non-NULL value.  For example,
someone may wish to design a type that treats an empty string and NULL
as equal.

All built-in types have strict equality functions, so this could affect
custom / user-defined types.

to_char() allocates its output buffer with 8 bytes per formatting

separator, or decimal or sign symbol is more than 8 bytes long,

0b196d3db7 Prevent some buffer overruns in spell.c's parsing of affix files.
parse_affentry() and addCompoundAffixFlagValue() each collect fields
from an affix file into working buffers of size BUFSIZ.  They failed
to defend against overlength fields, so that a malicious affix file
could cause a stack smash.  BUFSIZ (typically 8K) is certainly way
longer than any reasonable affix field, but let's fix this while
we're closing holes in this area.

I chose to do this by silently truncating the input before it can
overrun the buffer, using logic comparable to the existing logic in
get_nextfield().  Certainly there's at least as good an argument for
raising an error, but for now let's follow the existing precedent.

f852c9093f Prevent buffer overrun in spell.c's CheckAffix().

However a malicious affix file could supply an affix long

the input word length against Affix->replen, just to be sure
we won't index off the buffer, though it would be caller error
for that not to be true.

Also make the actual copying steps a bit more readable, and remove
an unnecessary requirement for the whole input word to fit into the
output buffer (even though it always will with the current caller).

0859000d0d Allow ALTER INDEX .. ATTACH PARTITION to validate a parent index
This commit tweaks ALTER INDEX .. ATTACH PARTITION to attempt a
validation of a parent index in the case where an index is already
attached but the parent is not yet valid.  This occurs in cases where a
parent index was created invalid such as with CREATE INDEX ONLY, but was
left invalid after an invalid child index was attached (partitioned
indexes set indisvalid to false if at least one partition is
!indisvalid, indisvalid is true in a partitioned table iff all
partitions are indisvalid).  This could leave a partition tree in a
situation where a user could not bring the parent index back to valid
after fixing the child index, as there is no built-in mechanism to do
so.  This commit relies on the fact that repeated ATTACH PARTITION
commands on the same index silently succeed.

An invalid parent index is more than just a passive issue.  It causes
for example ON CONFLICT on a partitioned table if the invalid parent
index is used to enforce a unique constraint.

Some test cases are added to track some of problematic patterns, using a
set of partition trees with combinations of invalid indexes and ATTACH
PARTITION.

7062bd577e Fix incorrect NEW references to generated columns in rule rewriting
When a rule action or rule qualification references NEW.col where col
is a generated column (stored or virtual), the rewriter produces
incorrect results.

rewriteTargetListIU removes generated columns from the query's target
list, since stored generated columns are recomputed by the executor
and virtual ones store nothing.  However, ReplaceVarsFromTargetList
then cannot find these columns when resolving NEW references during
rule rewriting.  For UPDATE, the REPLACEVARS_CHANGE_VARNO fallback
redirects NEW.col to the original target relation, making it read the
pre-update value (same as OLD.col).  For INSERT,
REPLACEVARS_SUBSTITUTE_NULL replaces it with NULL.  Both are wrong
when the generated column depends on columns being modified.

Fix by building target list entries for generated columns from their
generation expressions, pre-resolving the NEW.attribute references
within those expressions against the query's targetlist, and passing
them together with the query's targetlist to ReplaceVarsFromTargetList.

Back-patch to all supported branches.  Virtual generated columns were
added in v18, so the back-patches in pre-v18 branches only handle
stored generated columns.

23cebf672e Fix orphaned processes when startup process fails during PM_STARTUP
When the startup process exists with a FATAL error during PM_STARTUP,
the postmaster called ExitPostmaster() directly, assuming that no other
processes are running at this stage.  Since 7ff23c6d27, this
assumption is not true, as the checkpointer, the background writer, the
IO workers and bgworkers kicking in early would be around.

This commit removes the startup-specific shortcut happening in
process_pm_child_exit() for a failing startup process during PM_STARTUP,
falling down to the existing exit() flow to signal all the started
children with SIGQUIT, so as we have no risk of creating orphaned
processes.

This required an extra change in HandleFatalError() for v18 and newer
versions, as an assertion could be triggered for PM_STARTUP.  It is now
incorrect.  In v17 and older versions, HandleChildCrash() needs to be
changed to handle PM_STARTUP so as children can be waited on.

While on it, fix a comment at the top of postmaster.c.  It was claiming
that the checkpointer and the background writer were started after
PM_RECOVERY.  That is not the case.

4198b2d04b doc: Improve description of pg_ctl -l log file permissions
The documentation stated only that the log file created by pg_ctl -l is
inaccessible to other users by default. However, since commit c37b3d0,
the actual behavior is that only the cluster owner has access by default,
but users in the same group as the cluster owner may also read the file
if group access is enabled in the cluster.

This commit updates the documentation to describe this behavior
more clearly.

Backpatch to all supported versions.

6b59bd710b Add tests for low-level PGLZ [de]compression routines
The goal of this module is to provide an entry point for the coverage of
the low-level compression and decompression PGLZ routines.  The new test
is moved to a new parallel group, with all the existing
compression-related tests added to it.

This includes tests for the cases detected by fuzzing that emulate
corrupted compressed data, as fixed by 2b5ba2a0a1:
- Set control bit with read of a match tag, where no data follows.
- Set control bit with read of a match tag, where 1 byte follows.
- Set control bit with match tag where length nibble is 3 bytes
(extended case).

While on it, some tests are added for compress/decompress roundtrips,
and for check_complete=false/true.  Like 2b5ba2a0a1, backpatch to all
the stable branches.

c6d3f05851 Honor passed-in database OIDs in pgstat_database.c
Three routines in pgstat_database.c incorrectly ignore the database OID
provided by their caller, using MyDatabaseId instead:
- pgstat_report_connect()
- pgstat_report_disconnect()
- pgstat_reset_database_timestamp()

The first two functions, for connection and disconnection, each have a
single caller that already passes MyDatabaseId.  This was harmless,
still incorrect.

The timestamp reset function also has a single caller, but in this case
the issue has a real impact: it fails to reset the timestamp for the
shared-database entry (datid=0) when operating on shared objects.  This
situation can occur, for example, when resetting counters for shared
relations via pg_stat_reset_single_table_counters().

There is currently one test in the tree that checks the reset of a
shared relation, for pg_shdescription, we rely on it to check what is
stored in pg_stat_database.  As stats_reset may be NULL, two resets are
done to provide a baseline for comparison.

c88ad3a212 Fix heap-buffer-overflow in pglz_decompress() on corrupt input.
When decoding a match tag, pglz_decompress() reads 2 bytes (or 3
for extended-length matches) from the source buffer before checking
whether enough data remains.  The existing bounds check (sp > srcend)
occurs after the reads, so truncated compressed data that ends
mid-tag causes a read past the allocated buffer.

Fix by validating that sufficient source bytes are available before
reading each part of the match tag.  The post-read sp > srcend
check is no longer needed and is removed.

Found by fuzz testing with libFuzzer and AddressSanitizer.

7363e932c4 Enhance make_ctags and make_etags.
make_ctags did not include field members of structs since the commit
964d01ae90.

For example, in the following field of RestrictInfo:

   Selectivity norm_selec pg_node_attr(equal_ignore);

pg_node_attr was mistakenly interpreted to be the name of the field.
To fix this, add -I option to ctags command if the command is
Exuberant ctags or Universal ctags (for plain old ctags, struct
members are not included in the tags file anyway).

Also add "-e" and "-n" options to make_ctags. The -e option invokes
ctags command with -e option, which produces TAGS file for emacs. This
allows to eliminate duplicate codes in make_etags so that make_etags
just exec make_ctags with -e option.

The -n option allows not to produce symbolic links in each
sub directory (the default is producing symbolic links).

This includes the follow-up fixes: 87f21d2c68 and ae66716bf3.  This
change is applied to v15 and v14, v16 and nwer versions already
including these improvements.  One reason why I am doing this backpatch
is that this can be really useful for backpatching purposes, especially
the -n option that limits the number of TAGS/tags files created in the
tree.

4da71fc37a Fix integer overflow in nodeWindowAgg.c
In nodeWindowAgg.c, the calculations for frame start and end positions
in ROWS and GROUPS modes were performed using simple integer addition.
If a user-supplied offset was sufficiently large (close to INT64_MAX),
adding it to the current row or group index could cause a signed
integer overflow, wrapping the result to a negative number.

This led to incorrect behavior where frame boundaries that should have
extended indefinitely (or beyond the partition end) were treated as
falling at the first row, or where valid rows were incorrectly marked
as out-of-frame.  Depending on the specific query and data, these
overflows can result in incorrect query results, execution errors, or
assertion failures.

To fix, use overflow-aware integer addition (ie, pg_add_s64_overflow)
to check for overflows during these additions.  If an overflow is
detected, the boundary is now clamped to INT64_MAX.  This ensures the
logic correctly treats the boundary as extending to the end of the
partition.

07e833e3cf Avoid unsafe access to negative index in a TupleDesc.
Commit aa606b931 installed a test that would reference a nonexistent
TupleDesc array entry if a system column is used in COPY FROM WHERE.
Typically this would be harmless, but with bad luck it could result
in a phony "generated columns are not supported in COPY FROM WHERE

(Compare 570e2fcc0 which fixed the identical problem in another
place.)  Also, since c98ad086a it throws an Assert instead.

In the back branches, just guard the test to make it a safe no-op for

963fccc09c jit: No backport::SectionMemoryManager for LLVM 22.
LLVM 22 has the fix that we copied into our tree in commit 9044fc1d and
a new function to reach it[1][2], so we only need to use our copy for
Aarch64 + LLVM < 22.  The only change to the final version that our copy
didn't get is a new LLVM_ABI macro, but that isn't appropriate for us.
Our copy is hopefully now frozen and would only need maintenance if bugs
are found in the upstream code.

Non-Aarch64 systems now also use the new API with LLVM 22.  It allocates
all sections with one contiguous mmap() instead of one per
section.  We could have done that earlier, but commit 9044fc1d wanted to
limit the blast radius to the affected systems.  We might as well
benefit from that small improvement everywhere now that it is available
out of the box.

We can't delete our copy until LLVM 22 is our minimum supported version,
or we switch to the newer JITLink API for at least Aarch64.

811f3263a4 Be more careful to preserve consistency of a tuplestore.
Several places in tuplestore.c would leave the tuplestore data
structure effectively corrupt if some subroutine were to throw
an error.  Notably, if WRITETUP() failed after some number of
successful calls within dumptuples(), the tuplestore would
contain some memtuples pointers that were apparently live
entries but in fact pointed to pfree'd chunks.

In most cases this sort of thing is fine because transaction
abort cleanup is not too picky about the contents of memory that
it's going to throw away anyway.  There's at least one exception
though: if a Portal has a holdStore, we're going to call
tuplestore_end() on that, even during transaction abort.
So it's not cool if that tuplestore is corrupt, and that means
tuplestore.c has to be more careful.

This oversight demonstrably leads to crashes in v15 and before,
if a holdable cursor fails to persist its data due to an undersized
temp_file_limit setting.  Very possibly the same thing can happen in
v16 and v17 as well, though the specific test case submitted failed
to fail there (cf. 095555daf).  The failure is accidentally dodged
as of v18 because 590b045c3 got rid of tuplestore_end's retail tuple
deletion loop.  Still, it seems unwise to permit tuplestores to become
internally inconsistent in any branch, so I've applied the same fix
across the board.

Since the known test case for this is rather expensive and doesn't
fail in recent branches, I've omitted it.

6b2e091f02 Fix datum_image_*()'s inability to detect sign-extension variations
Functions such as hash_numeric() are not careful to use the correct
PG_RETURN_*() macro according to the return type of that function as
defined in pg_proc.  Because that function is meant to return int32,
when the hashed value exceeds 2^31, the 64-bit Datum value won't wrap to
a negative number, which means the Datum won't have the same value as it
would have had it been cast to int32 on a two's complement machine.  This
isn't harmless as both datum_image_eq() and datum_image_hash() may receive
a Datum that's been formed and deformed from a tuple in some cases, and
not in other cases.  When formed into a tuple, the Datum value will be
coerced into an integer according to the attlen as specified by the
TupleDesc.  This can result in two Datums that should be equal being
classed as not equal, which could result in (but not limited to) an error
such as:

ERROR:  could not find memoization table entry

Here we fix this by ensuring we cast the Datum value to a signed integer
according to the typLen specified in the datum_image_eq/datum_image_hash
function call before comparing or hashing.

d3bb7841b4 Fix multiple bugs in astreamer pipeline code.
astreamer_tar_parser_content() sent the wrong data pointer when
forwarding MEMBER_TRAILER padding to the next streamer.  After
astreamer_buffer_until() buffers the padding bytes, the 'data'
pointer has been advanced past them, but the code passed 'data'
instead of bbs_buffer.data.  This caused the downstream consumer
to receive bytes from after the padding rather than the padding
itself, and could read past the end of the input buffer.

astreamer_gzip_decompressor_content() only checked for
Z_STREAM_ERROR from inflate(), silently ignoring Z_DATA_ERROR
(corrupted data) and Z_MEM_ERROR (out of memory).  Fix by
treating any return other than Z_OK, Z_STREAM_END, and
Z_BUF_ERROR as fatal.

astreamer_gzip_decompressor_free() missed calling inflateEnd() to
release zlib's internal decompression state.

astreamer_tar_parser_free() neglected to pfree() the streamer
struct itself, leaking it.

astreamer_extractor_content() did not check the return value of
fclose() when closing an extracted file.  A deferred write error
(e.g., disk full on buffered I/O) would be silently lost.

246c296f00 Fix premature NULL lag reporting in pg_stat_replication
pg_stat_replication is documented to keep the last measured lag values for
a short time after the standby catches up, and then set them to NULL when
there is no WAL activity. However, previously lag values could become NULL
prematurely even while WAL activity was ongoing, especially in logical
replication.

This happened because the code cleared lag when two consecutive reply messages
indicated that the apply location had caught up with the send location.
It did not verify that the reported positions were unchanged, so lag could be
cleared even when positions had advanced between messages. In logical
replication, where the apply location often quickly catches up, this issue was
more likely to occur.

This commit fixes the issue by clearing lag only when the standby reports that
it has fully replayed WAL (i.e., both flush and apply locations have caught up
with the send location) and the write/flush/apply positions remain unchanged
across two consecutive reply messages.

The second message with unchanged positions typically results from
wal_receiver_status_interval, so lag values are cleared after that interval
when there is no activity. This avoids showing stale lag data while preventing
premature NULL values.

Even with this fix, lag may rarely become NULL during activity if identical
position reports are sent repeatedly. Eliminating such duplicate messages
would address this fully, but that change is considered too invasive for stable
branches and will be handled in master only later.

Backpatch to all supported branches.

a5f412107f Fix multixact backwards-compatibility with CHECKPOINT race condition
If a CHECKPOINT record with nextMulti N is written to the WAL before
the CREATE_ID record for N, and N happens to be the first multixid on
an offset page, the backwards compatibility logic to tolerate WAL
generated by older minor versions (before commit 789d65364c) failed to
compensate for the missing XLOG_MULTIXACT_ZERO_OFF_PAGE record. In
that case, the latest_page_number was initialized at the start of WAL
replay to the page for nextMulti from the CHECKPOINT record, even if
we had not seen the CREATE_ID record for that multixid yet, which
fooled the backwards compatibility logic to think that the page was
already initialized.

To fix, track the last XLOG_MULTIXACT_ZERO_OFF_PAGE that we've seen
separately from latest_page_number. If we haven't seen any
XLOG_MULTIXACT_ZERO_OFF_PAGE records yet, use
SimpleLruDoesPhysicalPageExist() to check if the page needs to be
initialized.

fa9f2e3175 Fix WAL flush LSN used by logical walsender during shutdown
Commit 6eedb2a5fd made the logical walsender call
XLogFlush(GetXLogInsertRecPtr()) to ensure that all pending WAL is flushed,
fixing a publisher shutdown hang. However, if the last WAL record ends at
a page boundary, GetXLogInsertRecPtr() can return an LSN pointing past
the page header, which can cause XLogFlush() to report an error.

A similar issue previously existed in the GiST code. Commit b1f14c9672
introduced GetXLogInsertEndRecPtr(), which returns a safe WAL insertion end
location (returning the start of the page when the last record ends at a page
boundary), and updated the GiST code to use it with XLogFlush().

This commit fixes the issue by making the logical walsender use
XLogFlush(GetXLogInsertEndRecPtr()) when flushing pending WAL during shutdown.

ce06b5740e Use GetXLogInsertEndRecPtr in gistGetFakeLSN
The function used GetXLogInsertRecPtr() to generate the fake LSN. Most
of the time this is the same as what XLogInsert() would return, and so
it works fine with the XLogFlush() call. But if the last record ends at
a page boundary, GetXLogInsertRecPtr() returns LSN pointing after the
page header. In such case XLogFlush() fails with errors like this:

  ERROR: xlog flush request 0/01BD2018 is not satisfied --- flushed only to 0/01BD2000

Such failures are very hard to trigger, particularly outside aggressive
test scenarios.

Fixed by introducing GetXLogInsertEndRecPtr(), returning the correct LSN
without skipping the header. This is the same as GetXLogInsertRecPtr(),
except that it calls XLogBytePosToEndRecPtr().

Initial investigation by me, root cause identified by Andres Freund.

This is a long-standing bug in gistGetFakeLSN(), probably introduced by

0b0041b942 xml2: Fix failure with xslt_process() under -fsanitize=undefined
The logic of xslt_process() has never considered the fact that
xsltSaveResultToString() would return NULL for an empty string (the
upstream code has always done so, with a string length of 0).  This
would cause memcpy() to be called with a NULL pointer, something
forbidden by POSIX.

Like 46ab07ffda and similar fixes, this is backpatched down to all the
supported branches, with a test case to cover this scenario.  An empty
string has been always returned in xml2 in this case, based on the
history of the module, so this is an old issue.

d0f4b6350d doc: Document IF NOT EXISTS option for ALTER FOREIGN TABLE ADD COLUMN.
Commit 2cd40adb85 added the IF NOT EXISTS option to ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN.
This also enabled IF NOT EXISTS for ALTER FOREIGN TABLE ADD COLUMN,
but the ALTER FOREIGN TABLE documentation was not updated to mention it.

This commit updates the documentation to describe the IF NOT EXISTS option for
ALTER FOREIGN TABLE ADD COLUMN.

While updating that section, also this commit clarifies that the COLUMN keyword
is optional in ALTER FOREIGN TABLE ADD/DROP COLUMN. Previously, part of
the documentation could be read as if COLUMN were required.

This commit adds regression tests covering these ALTER FOREIGN TABLE syntaxes.

Backpatch to all supported versions.
