Enable thread safety on all platforms.  This will either be followed up
by a more extensive patch, or reverted, depending on the build farm
results.

Adjust psql -f - to behave like a normal file and honor the -1 flag.

locale-dependent character classification properly when the database encoding
is UTF8.

The previous coding worked okay in single-byte encodings, or in any case for
ASCII characters, but failed entirely on multibyte characters.  The fix
assumes that the <wctype.h> functions use Unicode code points as the wchar
representation for Unicode, ie, wchar matches pg_wchar.

This is only a partial solution, since we're still stupid about non-ASCII
characters in multibyte encodings other than UTF8.  The practical effect
of that is limited, however, since those cases are generally Far Eastern
glyphs for which concepts like case-folding don't apply anyway.  Certainly
all or nearly all of the field reports of problems have been about UTF8.
A more general solution would require switching to the platform's wchar
representation for all regex operations; which is possible but would have
substantial disadvantages.  Let's try this and see if it's sufficient in
practice.

Add ProcessUtility_hook() to handle all DDL to
contrib/pg_stat_statements.

by adding a requirement that build_join_rel add new join RelOptInfos to the
appropriate list immediately at creation.  Per report from Robert Haas,
the list_concat_unique_ptr() calls that this change eliminates were taking
the lion's share of the runtime in larger join problems.  This doesn't do
anything to fix the fundamental combinatorial explosion in large join
problems, but it should push out the threshold of pain a bit further.

Note: because this changes the order in which joinrel lists are built,
it might result in changes in selected plans in cases where different
alternatives have exactly the same costs.  There is one example in the
regression tests.

be part of multixacts, so allocate a slot for each prepared transaction in
the "oldest member" array in multixact.c. On PREPARE TRANSACTION, transfer
the oldest member value from the current backends slot to the prepared xact
slot. Also save and recover the value from the 2pc state file.

The symptom of the bug was that after a transaction prepared, a shared lock
still held by the prepared transaction was sometimes ignored by other
transactions.

Fix back to 8.1, where both 2PC and multixact were introduced.

We have used -w for a long time as a means of reducing the reported diff
volume when one element of a result table isn't of the expected width.
However, most of the time the results just pass anyway, so this isn't as
important as it once was.  Meanwhile, the risk of missing potentially
significant deviations has gone up, particularly with psql's ability to
report error cursor positions.  So, let's switch over to space-sensitive
comparisons.  Per my proposal of yesterday.

(All the expected files that I can test here seem to be ready for this
already, but we'll see what the buildfarm thinks about others.)
