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.

This patch has completely broken the file_textarray fdw, which uses 
NextCopyFromRawFields(). Removing that from API is not a good thing.

Thank you for pointing it out.

I've just posted my analysis[1] and am planning to revive that API
(Sutou-san already proposed an idea). Could you please check if the
idea would work for file_text_array_fdw?


Looks OK, I think. You could even use the Internal function further down in the file and avoid a function call.


cheers
