Enable ALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW (timescaledb.compress)
This enables compression on the underlying materialized
hypertable. The segmentby and orderby columns for
compression are based on the GROUP BY clause and time_bucket
clause used while setting up the continuous aggregate.

Add support for compression policy on continuous
aggregates
Move code from job.c to policy_utils.c
Add support functions to check compression
policy validity for continuous aggregates.
Writing a shell script correctly can be hard even for a skilled
programmer. shellcheck is a static analysis tool that helps catch
common errors in shell scripts. We now have 36 executable scripts in
our repository, for which shellcheck reports 126 errors (calculated
like find . -type f -executable -exec bash -c '[ "$(file --brief
--mime-type "$1")" == "text/x-shellscript" ]' sh {} \; -exec shellcheck
-f gcc --exclude=SC2086 {} \; | cut -d: -f1 | sort | uniq | wc -l).
This commit fixes these warnings and adds a GitHub actions workflow
that runs shellcheck on all the executable shell scripts in the
repository. The warning SC2086: Double quote to prevent globbing and
word splitting is disabled globally, because it has little practical
consequences, sometimes leads to false positives, and is general is too
widespread because people forget to quote.
Update version numbers and add 2.4.2 to update tests.
We have to put the DROP FUNCTION back in latest-dev because
2.4.2 did not include the commit which removed the function
definitions.
Add 2.3.1 to the update tests and update the downgrade target for the
downgrade version. This commit also fixes two issues that were fixed in
the release branch:
1. Drop `_timescaledb_internal.refresh_continuous_aggregate`
2. Update the changelog to match the release branch.
In order to implement repair tests, changes are made to the
`constraint_check` table to simulate a broken dependency, which
requires the constraints on that table to be dropped. This means that
the repair runs without constraints, and a bug in the update test could
potentially not get caught.
This commit fixes this by factoring out the repair tests from the
update tests and run them as a separate pass. This means that the
contraints are not dropped in the update tests and bugs there will be
caught.
In addition, some bash functions are factored out into a separate file
to avoid duplication.
