Michael Paquier bf491a9073 Disable WAL-skipping optimization for COPY on views and foreign tables
COPY can skip writing WAL when loading data on a table which has been
created in the same transaction as the one loading the data, however
this cannot work on views or foreign table as this would result in
trying to flush relation files which do not exist.  So disable the
optimization so as commands are able to work the same way with any
configuration of wal_level.

Tests are added to cover the different cases, which need to have
wal_level set to minimal to allow the problem to show up, and that is
not the default configuration.

while v11 has added support for COPY on foreign tables.

PostgreSQL tests
================

This directory contains a variety of test infrastructure as well as some of the
tests in PostgreSQL. Not all tests are here -- in particular, there are more in
individual contrib/ modules and in src/bin.

Not all these tests get run by "make check". Check src/test/Makefile to see
which tests get run automatically.

authentication/
  Tests for authentication

examples/
  Demonstration programs for libpq that double as regression tests via
  "make check"

isolation/
  Tests for concurrent behavior at the SQL level

locale/
  Sanity checks for locale data, encodings, etc

mb/
  Tests for multibyte encoding (UTF-8) support

modules/
  Extensions used only or mainly for test purposes, generally not suitable
  for installing in production databases

perl/
  Infrastructure for Perl-based TAP tests

recovery/
  Test suite for recovery and replication

regress/
  PostgreSQL's main regression test suite, pg_regress

ssl/
  Tests to exercise and verify SSL certificate handling

subscription/
  Tests for logical replication

thread/
  A thread-safety-testing utility used by configure
