Hi hackers,

I noticed the following minor discrepancy in the pg_plan_advice docs,
attached a patch to address this.

(1) FOREIGN SCAN should be FOREIGN JOIN in the scan method advice tag. I
tested with FOREIGN SCAN and can confirm it gives a syntax error while the
other one works correctly.

postgres=# SET pg_plan_advice.advice = 'FOREIGN_JOIN((t1 t2))';
EXPLAIN (COSTS OFF, PLAN_ADVICE)
    SELECT * FROM fdw_t1 t1 JOIN fdw_t2 t2 ON t1.id = t2.t1_id;

SET
                   QUERY PLAN
-------------------------------------------------
 Foreign Scan
   Relations: (fdw_t1 t1) INNER JOIN (fdw_t2 t2)
 Supplied Plan Advice:
   FOREIGN_JOIN((t1 t2)) /* matched */
 Generated Plan Advice:
   FOREIGN_JOIN((t1 t2))
   NO_GATHER(t1 t2)
(7 rows)


(2) NESTED_LOOP_MEMOIZE is missing from the join method list in the doc
though it is supported.  Verified this by running below:

postgres=# SET pg_plan_advice.advice = 'NESTED_LOOP_MEMOIZE(d)';
SET
postgres=# EXPLAIN (COSTS OFF, PLAN_ADVICE) select * from t1 f JOIN t2 ON
f.id = t2.t1_id;
                 QUERY PLAN
--------------------------------------------
 Hash Join
   Hash Cond: (t2.t1_id = f.id)
   ->  Seq Scan on t2
   ->  Hash
         ->  Seq Scan on t1 f
 Supplied Plan Advice:
   NESTED_LOOP_MEMOIZE(d) /* not matched */
 Generated Plan Advice:
   JOIN_ORDER(t2 f)
   HASH_JOIN(f)
   SEQ_SCAN(t2 f)
   NO_GATHER(f t2)
(12 rows)

Regards,
Lakshmi
