When using a pipeline, a transaction starts from the first command and
is committed with a Sync message or when the pipeline ends.
Functions like IsInTransactionBlock() or PreventInTransactionBlock()
were already able to understand a pipeline as being in a transaction
block, but it was not the case of CheckTransactionBlock(). This
function is called for example to generate a WARNING for SET LOCAL,
complaining that it is used outside of a transaction block.
The current state of the code caused multiple problems, like:
- SET LOCAL executed at any stage of a pipeline issued a WARNING, even
if the command was at least second in line where the pipeline is in a
transaction state.
- LOCK TABLE failed when invoked at any step of a pipeline, even if it
should be able to work within a transaction block.
The pipeline protocol assumes that the first command of a pipeline is
not part of a transaction block, and that any follow-up commands is
considered as within a transaction block.
This commit changes the backend so as an implicit transaction block is
started each time the first Execute message of a pipeline has finished
processing, with this implicit transaction block ended once a sync is
processed. The checks based on XACT_FLAGS_PIPELINING in the routines
checking if we are in a transaction block are not necessary: it is
enough to rely on the existing ones.
Some tests are added to pgbench, that can be backpatched down to v17
when \syncpipeline is involved and down to v14 where \startpipeline and
\endpipeline are available. This is unfortunately limited regarding the
error patterns that can be checked, but it provides coverage for various
pipeline combinations to check if these succeed or fail. These tests
are able to capture the case of SET LOCAL's WARNING. The author has
proposed a different feature to improve the coverage by adding similar
meta-commands to psql where error messages could be checked, something
more useful for the cases where commands cannot be used in transaction
blocks, like REINDEX CONCURRENTLY or VACUUM. This is considered as
future work for v18~.

Previously, in unlucky cases, it was possible for pg_rewind to remove
certain WAL segments from the rewound demoted primary. In particular
this happens if those files have been marked for archival (i.e., their
.ready files were created) but not yet archived; the newly promoted node
no longer has such files because of them having been recycled, but they
are likely critical for recovery in the demoted node. If pg_rewind
removes them, recovery is not possible anymore.
Fix this by maintaining a hash table of files in this situation in the
scan that looks for a checkpoint, which the decide_file_actions phase
can consult so that it knows to preserve them.
Backpatch to 14. The problem also exists in 13, but that branch was not
blessed with commit eb00f1d4bf, so this patch is difficult to apply
there. Users of older releases will just have to continue to be extra
careful when rewinding.

Commit bf03cfd1 started scanning all available BCP 47 locale names on
Windows. This caused an abort/crash in the Windows runtime library if
the default locale name contained non-ASCII characters, because of our
use of the setlocale() save/restore pattern with "char" strings. After
switching to another locale with a different encoding, the saved name
could no longer be understood, and setlocale() would abort.
"Turkish_Türkiye.1254" is the example from recent reports, but there are
other examples of countries and languages with non-ASCII characters in
their names, and they appear in Windows' (old style) locale names.
To defend against this:
1. In initdb, reject non-ASCII locale names given explicity on the
command line, or returned by the operating system environment with
setlocale(..., ""), or "canonicalized" by the operating system when we
set it.
2. In initdb only, perform the save-and-restore with Windows'
non-standard wchar_t variant of setlocale(), so that it is not subject
to round trip failures stemming from char string encoding confusion.
3. In the backend, we don't have to worry about the save-and-restore
problem because we have already vetted the defaults, so we just have to
make sure that CREATE DATABASE also rejects non-ASCII names in any new
databases. SET lc_XXX doesn't suffer from the problem, but the ban
applies to it too because it uses check_locale(). CREATE COLLATION
doesn't suffer from the problem either, but it doesn't use
check_locale() so it is not included in the new ban for now, to minimize
the change.
Anyone who encounters the new error message should either create a new
duplicated locale with an ASCII-only name using Windows Locale Builder,
or consider using BCP 47 names like "tr-TR". Users already couldn't
initialize a cluster with "Turkish_Türkiye.1254" on PostgreSQL 16+, but
the new failure mode is an error message that explains why, instead of a
crash.
Back-patch to 16, where bf03cfd1 landed. Older versions are affected
in theory too, but only 16 and later are causing crash reports.

Since we introduced unlogged sequences in v15, identity sequences
have defaulted to having the same persistence as their owning table.
However, it is possible to change that with ALTER SEQUENCE, and
pg_dump tries to preserve the logged-ness of sequences when it doesn't
match (as indeed it wouldn't for an unlogged table from before v15).
The fly in the ointment is that ALTER SEQUENCE SET [UN]LOGGED fails
in binary-upgrade mode, because it needs to assign a new relfilenode
which we cannot permit in that mode. Thus, trying to pg_upgrade a
database containing a mismatching identity sequence failed.
To fix, add syntax to ADD/ALTER COLUMN GENERATED AS IDENTITY to allow
the sequence's persistence to be set correctly at creation, and use
that instead of ALTER SEQUENCE SET [UN]LOGGED in pg_dump. (I tried to
make SET [UN]LOGGED work without any pg_dump modifications, but that
seems too fragile to be a desirable answer. This way should be
markedly faster anyhow.)
In passing, document the previously-undocumented SEQUENCE NAME option
that pg_dump also relies on for identity sequences; I see no value
in trying to pretend it doesn't exist.

When pg_dump retrieves the list of database objects and performs the
data dump, there was possibility that objects are replaced with others
of the same name, such as views, and access them. This vulnerability
could result in code execution with superuser privileges during the
pg_dump process.
This issue can arise when dumping data of sequences, foreign
tables (only 13 or later), or tables registered with a WHERE clause in
the extension configuration table.
To address this, pg_dump now utilizes the newly introduced
restrict_nonsystem_relation_kind GUC parameter to restrict the
accesses to non-system views and foreign tables during the dump
process. This new GUC parameter is added to back branches too, but

checkExtensionMembership() set the DUMP_COMPONENT_SECLABEL and
DUMP_COMPONENT_POLICY flags for extension member objects, even though
we lack any infrastructure for tracking extensions' initial settings
of these properties. This is not OK. The result was that a dump
would always include commands to set these properties for extension
objects that have them, with at least three negative consequences:
1. The restoring user might not have privilege to set these properties
on these objects.
2. The properties might be incorrect/irrelevant for the version of the
extension that's installed in the destination database.
3. The dump itself might fail, in the case of RLS properties attached
to extension tables that the dumping user lacks privilege to LOCK.
(That's because we must get at least AccessShareLock to ensure that
we don't fail while trying to decompile the RLS expressions.)
When and if somebody cares to invent initial-state infrastructure for
extensions' RLS policies and security labels, we could think about
finding another way around problem #3. But in the absence of such
infrastructure, this whole thing is just wrong and we shouldn't do it.

Starting on 2023-08-03, this intermittently terminated a "pgbench -C"
test in CI. It could affect a high-client-count "pgbench" without "-C".
While parallel reindexdb and vacuumdb reach the same problematic check,
sufficient client count and/or connection turnover is less plausible for
them. Given the lack of examples from the buildfarm or from manual
builds, reproducing this must entail rare operating system
configurations. Also correct the associated error message, which was
wrong for non-Windows. Back-patch to v12, where the pgbench check first
appeared. While v11 vacuumdb has the problematic check, reaching it
with typical vacuumdb usage is implausible.
