Tom Lane f0c2a5bba6 Avoid leaking memory in RestoreGUCState(), and improve comments. 
RestoreGUCState applied InitializeOneGUCOption to already-live
GUC entries, causing any malloc'd subsidiary data to be forgotten.
We do want the effect of resetting the GUC to its compiled-in
default, and InitializeOneGUCOption seems like the best way to do
that, so add code to free any existing subsidiary data beforehand.

The interaction between can_skip_gucvar, SerializeGUCState, and
RestoreGUCState is way more subtle than their opaque comments
would suggest to an unwary reader.  Rewrite and enlarge the
comments to try to make it clearer what's happening.

Remove a long-obsolete assertion in read_nondefault_variables: the
behavior of set_config_option hasn't depended on IsInitProcessingMode
since f5d9698a8 installed a better way of controlling it.

Although this is fixing a clear memory leak, the leak is quite unlikely
to involve any large amount of data, and it can only happen once in the
lifetime of a worker process.  So it seems unnecessary to take any
risk of back-patching.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
