postgres_fdw: set search_path to 'pg_catalog' while deparsing constants.

tglsfdc · tglsfdc · commit 26c9e1bd8846 · 2022-07-17T17:27:51.000-04:00
The motivation for this is to ensure successful transmission of the values of constants of regconfig and other reg* types. The remote will be reading them with search_path = 'pg_catalog', so schema qualification is necessary when referencing objects in other schemas. Per bug #17483 from Emmanuel Quincerot. Back-patch to all supported versions. (There's some other stuff to do here, but it's less back-patchable.) Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1423433.1652722406@sss.pgh.pa.us
