Alexander Korotkov f2e4cc4279 Implement ALTER TABLE ... MERGE PARTITIONS ... command
This new DDL command merges several partitions into a single partition of the
target table.  The target partition is created using the new
createPartitionTable() function with the parent partition as the template.

This commit comprises a quite naive implementation which works in a single
process and holds the ACCESS EXCLUSIVE LOCK on the parent table during all
the operations, including the tuple routing.  This is why this new DDL
command can't be recommended for large partitioned tables under a high load.
However, this implementation comes in handy in certain cases, even as it is.
Also, it could serve as a foundation for future implementations with less
locking and possibly parallelism.
