got it.  Per buildfarm failure on 'canary'.

pg_freespacemap_relations --- while one could theoretically get that
number by counting rows in pg_freespacemap_pages, it's surely the hard
way to do it.  Avoid expensive and inconvenient conversion to and from
text format.  Minor code and docs cleanup.

it's not necessary to have three separate calls anymore.  This patch also
fixes things so we don't try to read pg_internal.init until after we've
obtained lock on the target database; which was fairly harmless, but it's
certainly cleaner this way.

The former approach used ExclusiveLock on pg_database, which being a
cluster-wide lock meant only one of these operations could proceed at
a time; worse, it also blocked all incoming connections in ReverifyMyDatabase.
Now that we have LockSharedObject(), we can use locks of different types
applied to databases considered as objects.  This allows much more
flexible management of the interlocking: two CREATE DATABASEs need not
block each other, and need not block connections except to the template
database being used.  Similarly DROP DATABASE doesn't block unrelated
operations.  The locking used in flatfiles.c is also much narrower in
scope than before.  Per recent proposal.

in various places that were previously doing ad hoc pg_database searches.
This may speed up database-related privilege checks a little bit, but
the main motivation is to eliminate the performance reason for having
ReverifyMyDatabase do such a lot of stuff (viz, avoiding repeat scans
of pg_database during backend startup).  The locking reason for having
that routine is about to go away, and it'd be good to have the option
to break it up.

initPlan sets a parameter for another.  This could not (I think) happen before
8.1, but it's possible now because the initPlans generated by MIN/MAX
optimization might themselves use initPlans.  We attach those initPlans as
siblings of the MIN/MAX ones, not children, to avoid duplicate computation
when multiple MIN/MAX aggregates are present; so this leads to the case of an
initPlan needing the result of a sibling initPlan, which is not possible with
ordinary query nesting.  Hadn't been noticed because in most contexts having
too much stuff listed in extParam is fairly harmless.  Fixes "plan should not
reference subplan's variable" bug reported by Catalin Pitis.

This formulation requires every AM to provide amvacuumcleanup, unlike before,
but it's surely a whole lot cleaner.  Also, add an 'amstorage' column to
pg_am so that we can get rid of hardwired knowledge in DefineOpClass().

text[], int4[], Tsearch2 support for GIN.

the union of its child relations as well.  This might have been a good idea
when it was originally coded, but it's a fatally bad idea when inheritance is
being used for partitioning.  It's better to have no stats at all than
completely misleading stats.  Per report from Mark Liberman.

The bug arguably exists all the way back, but I've only patched HEAD and 8.1
because we weren't particularly trying to support partitioning before 8.1.

Eventually we ought to look at deriving union statistics instead of just
punting, but for now the drop kick looks good.

input datatypes given, and use this before trying OpernameGetCandidates.
This is faster than the old method when there's an exact match, and it
does not seem materially slower when there's not.  And it definitely
makes some of the callers cleaner, because they didn't really want to
know about a list of candidates anyway.  Per discussion with Atsushi Ogawa.

CONNECTION, fix a number of places that were missed (eg pg_dump support),
avoid executing an extra search of pg_database during startup.

support both FOR UPDATE and FOR SHARE in one command, as well as both
NOWAIT and normal WAIT behavior.  The more general code is actually
simpler and cleaner.
