This PR:

  • Adds build infrastructure for the frontend tools to compile with pg_tde.
  • Makes pg_waldump work with the TDE encrypted WAL. If user set -k flag it will try to init tde keys etc and decode encrypted pages. If no -k options set, it behaves like community version - won't try to ini tde and won't be able to decrypt WAL.
  • Adds tap tests for encrypted WAL to pg_waldump. !Tests currently for only with meson (meson test --suite pg_waldump) and don't work with autotools (make -C src/bin/pg_waldump check)!

Depends on changes in Percona-Lab/pg_tde#266

For PG-857

Added a Percona specific definition to pg_config, allowing our

Make XLog storage extensible

and allow extensions to override it
For now, it extends on `pread` and `pwrite` from/into segment files.
This is the minimum we need for full XLog encryption with pg_de.

Fix bugs in MultiXact truncation
b1ffe3f 
1. TruncateMultiXact() performs the SLRU truncations in a critical
section. Deleting the SLRU segments calls ForwardSyncRequest(), which
will try to compact the request queue if it's full
(CompactCheckpointerRequestQueue()). That in turn allocates memory,
which is not allowed in a critical section. Backtrace:

To fix, bail out in CompactCheckpointerRequestQueue() without doing
anything, if it's called in a critical section. That covers the above
call path, as well as any other similar cases where
RegisterSyncRequest might be called in a critical section.

2. After fixing that, another problem became apparent: Autovacuum
process doing that truncation can deadlock with the checkpointer
process. TruncateMultiXact() sets "MyProc->delayChkptFlags |=
DELAY_CHKPT_START". If the sync request queue is full and cannot be
compacted, the process will repeatedly sleep and retry, until there is
room in the queue. However, if the checkpointer is trying to start a
checkpoint at the same time, and is waiting for the DELAY_CHKPT_START
processes to finish, the queue will never shrink.

More concretely, the autovacuum process is stuck here:

and the checkpointer is stuck here:

    #0  0x00007fc9348ebf93 in clock_nanosleep () from /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6
    #1  0x00007fc9348fe353 in nanosleep () from /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6

    #4  0x000056220b1c6e86 in CheckpointerMain (startup_data=<optimized out>, startup_data_len=<optimized out>) at ../src/backend/postmaster/checkpointer.c:464

To fix, add AbsorbSyncRequests() to the loops where the checkpointer
waits for DELAY_CHKPT_START or DELAY_CHKPT_COMPLETE operations to
finish.

Backpatch to v14. Before that, SLRU deletion didn't call
RegisterSyncRequest, which avoided this failure. I'm not sure if there
are other similar scenarios on older versions, but we haven't had
any such reports.
