Rename a function to avoid naming conflict in parallel regression tests.

Commit 31a891857a128828d47d93c63e041f3b69cbab70 added some tests in
plpgsql.sql that used a function rather unthinkingly named "foo()".
However, rangefuncs.sql has some much older tests that create a function
of that name, and since these test scripts run in parallel, there is a
chance of failures if the timing is just right.  Use another name to
avoid that.  Per buildfarm (failure seen today on "hamerkop", but
probably it's happened before and not been noticed).
Also escape double quotes for ECPG's #line statement.
Handle posix_fallocate() errors.

On some platforms, posix_fallocate() is available but may still return
EINVAL if the underlying filesystem does not support it.  So, in case
of an error, fall through to the alternate implementation that just
writes zeros.

Fix planning of parameterized appendrel paths with expensive join quals.

The code in set_append_rel_pathlist() for building parameterized paths
for append relations (inheritance and UNION ALL combinations) supposed
that the cheapest regular path for a child relation would still be cheapest
when reparameterized.  Which might not be the case, particularly if the
added join conditions are expensive to compute, as in a recent example from
Jeff Janes.  Fix it to compare child path costs *after* reparameterizing.
We can short-circuit that if the cheapest pre-existing path is already
parameterized correctly, which seems likely to be true often enough to be
worth checking for.

Back-patch to 9.2 where parameterized paths were introduced.
Improve scalability of WAL insertions.

This patch replaces WALInsertLock with a number of WAL insertion slots,
allowing multiple backends to insert WAL records to the WAL buffers
concurrently. This is particularly useful for parallel loading large amounts
of data on a system with many CPUs.

This has one user-visible change: switching to a new WAL segment with
pg_switch_xlog() now fills the remaining unused portion of the segment with
zeros. This potentially adds some overhead, but it has been a very common
practice by DBA's to clear the "tail" of the segment with an external
pg_clearxlogtail utility anyway, to make the WAL files compress better.
With this patch, it's no longer necessary to do that.

This patch adds a new GUC, xloginsert_slots, to tune the number of WAL
insertion slots. Performance testing suggests that the default, 8, works
pretty well for all kinds of worklods, but I left the GUC in place to allow
others with different hardware to test that easily. We might want to remove
that before release.

This reverts the previous commit to add "#include <emmintrinsic.h>"; the
