Robert Haas 0927d2f46d Let Parallel Append over simple UNION ALL have partial subpaths.
A simple UNION ALL gets flattened into an appendrel of subquery
RTEs, but up until now it's been impossible for the appendrel to use
the partial paths for the subqueries, so we can implement the
appendrel as a Parallel Append but only one with non-partial paths
as children.

There are three separate obstacles to removing that limitation.
First, when planning a subquery, propagate any partial paths to the
final_rel so that they are potentially visible to outer query levels
(but not if they have initPlans attached, because that wouldn't be
safe).  Second, after planning a subquery, propagate any partial paths
for the final_rel to the subquery RTE in the outer query level in the
same way we do for non-partial paths.  Third, teach finalize_plan() to
account for the possibility that the fake parameter we use for rescan
signalling when the plan contains a Gather (Merge) node may be
propagated from an outer query level.

Patch by me, reviewed and tested by Amit Khandekar, Rajkumar
Raghuwanshi, and Ashutosh Bapat.  Test cases based on examples by
Rajkumar Raghuwanshi.

PostgreSQL tests
================

This directory contains a variety of test infrastructure as well as some of the
tests in PostgreSQL. Not all tests are here -- in particular, there are more in
individual contrib/ modules and in src/bin.

Not all these tests get run by "make check". Check src/test/Makefile to see
which tests get run automatically.

authentication/
  Tests for authentication

examples/
  Demonstration programs for libpq that double as regression tests via
  "make check"

isolation/
  Tests for concurrent behavior at the SQL level

locale/
  Sanity checks for locale data, encodings, etc

mb/
  Tests for multibyte encoding (UTF-8) support

modules/
  Extensions used only or mainly for test purposes, generally not suitable
  for installing in production databases

perl/
  Infrastructure for Perl-based TAP tests

recovery/
  Test suite for recovery and replication

regress/
  PostgreSQL's main regression test suite, pg_regress

ssl/
  Tests to exercise and verify SSL certificate handling

subscription/
  Tests for logical replication

thread/
  A thread-safety-testing utility used by configure
