Tom Lane 8fc4876147 Avoid unhelpful internal error for incorrect recursive-WITH queries.
checkWellFormedRecursion would issue "missing recursive reference"
if a WITH RECURSIVE query contained a single self-reference but
that self-reference was inside a top-level WITH, ORDER BY, LIMIT,
etc, rather than inside the second arm of the UNION as expected.
We already intended to throw more-on-point errors for such cases,
but those error checks must be done before examining the UNION arm
in order to have the desired results.  So this patch need only
move some code (and improve the comments).

Per bug #18536 from Alexander Lakhin.  Back-patch to all supported
branches.

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 (but see also below)

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

isolation/
  Tests for concurrent behavior at the SQL level

kerberos/
  Tests for Kerberos/GSSAPI authentication and encryption

ldap/
  Tests for LDAP-based authentication

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
