 *
 * prepagg.c
 *	  Routines to preprocess aggregate function calls
 *
 * If there are identical aggregate calls in the query, they only need to
 * be computed once.  Also, some aggregate functions can share the same
 * transition state, so that we only need to call the final function for
 * them separately.  These optimizations are independent of how the
 * aggregates are executed.
 *
 * preprocess_aggrefs() detects those cases, creates AggInfo and
 * AggTransInfo structs for each aggregate and transition state that needs
 * to be computed, and sets the 'aggno' and 'transno' fields in the Aggrefs
 * accordingly.  It also resolves polymorphic transition types, and sets
 * the 'aggtranstype' fields accordingly.
 *
 * XXX: The AggInfo and AggTransInfo structs are thrown away after
 * planning, so executor startup has to perform some of the same lookups
 * of transition functions and initial values that we do here.  One day, we
 * might want to carry that information to the Agg nodes to save the effort
 * at executor startup.  The Agg nodes are constructed much later in the
 * planning, however, so it's not trivial.

/* -----------------
 * Resolve the transition type of all Aggrefs, and determine which Aggrefs
 * can share aggregate or transition state.
 *
 * Information about the aggregates and transition functions are collected
 * in the root->agginfos and root->aggtransinfos lists.  The 'aggtranstype',
 * 'aggno', and 'aggtransno' fields of each Aggref are filled in.
 *
 * NOTE: This modifies the Aggrefs in the input expression in-place!
 *
 * We try to optimize by detecting duplicate aggregate functions so that
 * their state and final values are re-used, rather than needlessly being
 * re-calculated independently.  We also detect aggregates that are not
 * the same, but which can share the same transition state.
 *
 * Scenarios:
 *
 * 1. Identical aggregate function calls appear in the query:
 *
 *	  SELECT SUM(x) FROM ... HAVING SUM(x) > 0
 *
 *	  Since these aggregates are identical, we only need to calculate
 *	  the value once.  Both aggregates will share the same 'aggno' value.
 *
 * 2. Two different aggregate functions appear in the query, but the
 *	  aggregates have the same arguments, transition functions and
 *	  initial values (and, presumably, different final functions):
 *
 *	  SELECT AVG(x), STDDEV(x) FROM ...
 *
 *	  In this case we must create a new AggInfo for the varying aggregate,
 *	  and we need to call the final functions separately, but we need
 *	  only run the transition function once.  (This requires that the
 *	  final functions be nondestructive of the transition state, but
 *	  that's required anyway for other reasons.)
 *
 * For either of these optimizations to be valid, all aggregate properties
 * used in the transition phase must be the same, including any modifiers
 * such as ORDER BY, DISTINCT and FILTER, and the arguments mustn't
 * contain any volatile functions.
