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.

MIN/MAX not be converted to use an index if the query WHERE clause contains
any volatile functions or subplans.

I had originally feared that the conversion might alter the behavior of such a
query with respect to a volatile function.  Well, so it might, but only in the
sense that the function would get evaluated at a subset of the table rows
rather than all of them --- and we have never made any such guarantee anyway.
(For instance, we don't refuse to use an index for an ordinary non-aggregate
query when one of the non-indexable filter conditions contains a volatile
function.)

The prohibition against subplans was because of worry that that case wasn't
adequately tested, which it wasn't, but it turns out to be possible to make
8.1 fail anyway:

regression=# select o.ten, (select max(unique2) from tenk1 i where ten = o.ten
or ten = (select f1 from int4_tbl limit 1)) from tenk1 o;
ERROR:  direct correlated subquery unsupported as initplan

This is due to bogus code in SS_make_initplan_from_plan (it's an initplan,
ergo it can't have any parParams).  Having fixed that, we might as well allow
subplans as well as initplans.

that's not enough, as evidenced by the fact that libecpg had an unexpected
dependency on one such symbol.  We should try to do it on more platforms.
Fix ecpg's oversight, and bump libpq's major .so version number to reflect
the unwanted but nonetheless real ABI break.
