Invent a new flag bit HASH_STRINGS to specify C-string hashing, which
was formerly the default; and add assertions insisting that exactly
one of the bits HASH_STRINGS, HASH_BLOBS, and HASH_FUNCTION be set.
This is in hopes of preventing recurrences of the type of oversight
fixed in commit a1b8aa1e4 (i.e., mistakenly omitting HASH_BLOBS).
Also, when HASH_STRINGS is specified, insist that the keysize be
more than 8 bytes. This is a heuristic, but it should catch
accidental use of HASH_STRINGS for integer or pointer keys.
(Nearly all existing use-cases set the keysize to NAMEDATALEN or
more, so there's little reason to think this restriction should
be problematic.)
Tweak hash_create() to insist that the HASH_ELEM flag be set, and
remove the defaults it had for keysize and entrysize. Since those
defaults were undocumented and basically useless, no callers
omitted HASH_ELEM anyway.
Also, remove memset's zeroing the HASHCTL parameter struct from
those callers that had one. This has never been really necessary,
and while it wasn't a bad coding convention it was confusing that
some callers did it and some did not. We might as well save a few
cycles by standardizing on "not".
Also improve the documentation for hash_create().
In passing, improve reinit.c's usage of a hash table by storing
the key as a binary Oid rather than a string; and, since that's
a temporary hash table, allocate it in CurrentMemoryContext for
neatness.

Per discussion, the new extensible node framework is thought to be
better designed than the custom path/scan/scanstate stuff we added
in PostgreSQL 9.5. Rework the latter to be more like the former.
This is not backward-compatible, but we generally don't promise that
for C APIs, and there probably aren't many people using this yet
anyway.
KaiGai Kohei, reviewed by Petr Jelinek and me. Some further
cosmetic changes by me.

The old code is bad for two reasons. First, it has an off-by-one
error. Second, it won't help if you aren't running with assertions
enabled. Per discussion, we want a check here in that case too.

I believe that I (rhaas) introduced this bug while editing the patch
that became bcac23de73b89b001fbc628d84471a392e928d1c.
Report and patch from KaiGai Kohei.

An extensible node is always tagged T_Extensible, but the extnodename
field identifies it more specifically; it may also include arbitrary
private data. Extensible nodes can be copied, tested for equality,
serialized, and deserialized, but the core system doesn't know
anything about them otherwise. Some extensions may find it useful to
include these nodes in fdw_private or custom_private lists in lieu of
arm-wrestling their data into a format that the core code can
understand.
Along the way, so as not to burden the authors of such extensible
node types too much, expose the functions for writing serialized
tokens, and for serializing and deserializing bitmapsets.
