Refactor COPY FROM to use format callback functions. This commit introduces a new CopyFromRoutine struct, which is a set of callback routines to read tuples in a specific format. It also makes COPY FROM with the existing formats (text, CSV, and binary) utilize these format callbacks.
This change is a preliminary step towards making the COPY FROM command extensible in terms of input formats. Similar to 2e4127b6d2d, this refactoring contributes to a performance improvement by reducing the number of "if" branches that need to be checked on a per-row basis when sending field representations in text or CSV mode. The performance benchmark results showed ~5% performance gain in text or CSV mode.
