Simple CTEs which does not contain aggregates or DISTINCT are
now supported similarly to simple sub-queries.
Before a view is maintained, all CTEs are converted to corresponding
subqueries to enable to treat CTEs as same as subqueries. For this
end, codes of the static function inline_cte in the core
(optimizer/plan/subselect.c) was imported.
Prohibit Unreferenced CTE is prohibited.
When a table in a unreferenced CTE is TRUNCATEd, the contents
of the IMMV is not affected so it must not be truncated. For
confirming it at the maintenance time, we have to check if the
modified table used in a CTE is actually referenced. Although
it would possible, we just disallow to create such IMMVs for now
since such unreferenced CTE is useless unless it doesn't contain
modifying commands, that is already prohibited.
In order to re-calculate min/max values for groups where the min
or max value is deleted, we need the view query definition in string
form. However, pg_get_viewdef cannot be used for this purpose because
IMMV's defenition is in pg_ivm_immv but not pg_rewrite. Therefore,
we have to convert query definition in pg_ivm_immv to query
definition string. We can use pg_get_querydef in PG15, but we cannot
in PG14 or earlier, so we use codes in ruleutil.c copied from PG13
or PG14 depending versions.
refresh_immv(immv_name, with_data) is a function to refresh IMMV like
REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW command. It has two argument.
immv_name is incrementally maintainable materialized view's name, and
with_data is an option that is corresponding to the WITH [NO] DATA option.
When with_data is set false, the IMMV gets unpopulated.
One of differences between IMMVs unpopulated by this function and
normal materialized views unpopulated by REFRESH ... WITH NO DATA
is that such IMMVs can be referenced by SELECT but return no rows,
while unpopulated materialized views are not scanable.
The behaviour may be changed in future to raise an error when unpopulated
an IMMV is scanned.
