Commits

  1. Clean up handling of constraint_exclusion and enable_partition_pruning.

  2. Add test case exercising formerly-unreached code in inheritance_planner.

  3. Speed up planning when partitions can be pruned at plan time.

  4. Avoid crash in partitionwise join planning under GEQO.

  5. Avoid passing query tlist around separately from root->processed_tlist.

  6. Build "other rels" of appendrel baserels in a separate step.

  7. Get rid of duplicate child RTE for a partitioned table.

  8. Rearrange make_partitionedrel_pruneinfo to avoid work when we can't prune.

  9. Don't copy PartitionBoundInfo in set_relation_partition_info.

  10. Move building of child base quals out into a new function

  11. Reorganize planner code moved in b60c39759908

  12. Move inheritance expansion code into its own file

  13. Fix inherited UPDATE/DELETE with UNION ALL subqueries.

  14. Rearrange planner to save the whole PlannerInfo (subroot) for a subquery.
