Extend the infrastructure in btree_gin.c to permit cross-type
operators, and add the code to support them for the int2, int4,
and int8 opclasses. (To keep this patch digestible, I left
the other datatypes for a separate patch.) This improves the
usability of btree_gin indexes by allowing them to support the
same set of queries that a regular btree index does.

The documentation for pg_replication_slots previously mentioned only
max_slot_wal_keep_size as a condition under which the wal_status column
could show unreserved or lost. However, since commit be87200,
replication slots can also be invalidated due to horizon or wal_level,
and since commit ac0e33136ab, idle_replication_slot_timeout can also
trigger this state.
This commit updates the description of the wal_status column to
reflect that max_slot_wal_keep_size is not the only cause of the lost state.

If certain constraint characteristic clauses (NO INHERIT, NOT VALID, NOT
ENFORCED) are given to CREATE CONSTRAINT TRIGGER, the resulting error
message is
ERROR: TRIGGER constraints cannot be marked NO INHERIT
which is a bit silly, because these aren't "constraints of type
TRIGGER". Hardcode a better error message to prevent it. This is a
cosmetic fix for quite a fringe problem with no known complaints from
users, so no backpatch.

The previous minimum was to maintain support for Python 3.5, but we
now require Python 3.6 anyway (commit 45363fca637), so that reason is
obsolete. A small raise to Meson 0.57 allows getting rid of a fair
amount of version conditionals and silences some future-deprecated
warnings.
With the version bump, the following deprecation warnings appeared and
are fixed:
WARNING: Project targets '>=0.57' but uses feature deprecated since '0.55.0': ExternalProgram.path. use ExternalProgram.full_path() instead
WARNING: Project targets '>=0.57' but uses feature deprecated since '0.56.0': meson.build_root. use meson.project_build_root() or meson.global_build_root() instead.
It turns out that meson 0.57.0 and 0.57.1 are buggy for our use, so
the minimum is actually set to 0.57.2. This is specific to this
version series; in the future we won't necessarily need to be this
precise.

This commit renames the pg_recvlogical options --two-phase and
--failover to --enable-two-phase and --enable-failover, respectively.
The new names distinguish these enabling options from action options
like --start and --create-slot, while clearly indicating their purpose
to enable specific logical slot features.
The option --failover is new in PostgreSQL 18 (commit cf2655a9029), so
no compatibility break there. The option --two-phase has existed
since PostgreSQL 15 (commit cda03cfed6b), so for compatibility we keep
the old option name --two-phase around as deprecated.
Also note that pg_createsubscriber has acquired an --enable-two-phase
option, so this increases consistency across tools.

Just like selecting from a view is exploitable (CVE-2024-7348),
selecting from a table with virtual generated columns is exploitable.
Users who are concerned about this can avoid selecting from views, but
telling them to avoid selecting from tables is less practical.
To address this, this changes it so that generation expressions for
virtual generated columns are restricted to using built-in functions
and types, and the columns are restricted to having a built-in type.
We assume that built-in functions and types cannot be exploited for
this purpose.
In the future, this could be expanded by some new mechanism to declare
other functions and types as safe or trusted for this purpose, but
that is to be designed.
(An alternative approach might have been to expand the
restrict_nonsystem_relation_kind GUC to handle this, like the fix for
CVE-2024-7348. But that is kind of an ugly approach. That fix had to
fit in the constraints of fixing an ancient vulnerability in all
branches. Since virtual generated columns are new, we're free from
the constraints of the past, and we can and should use cleaner
options.)

This patch clarifies that the abort LSN and timestamp are included only
