Previously, chunks could end up unaligned betweeen partitions if the chunk_time_interval
was updated between chunk creations. Now there is a check when a chunk is created whether there is
a chunk matching the time point in another partition and if there is, the new chunk is created
with the same interval.
Clean up the table schema to get rid of legacy tables and functionality
that makes it more difficult to provide an upgrade path.
Notable changes:
* Get rid of legacy tables and code
* Simplify directory structure for SQL code
* Simplify table hierarchy: remove root table and make chunk tables
* inherit directly from main table
* Change chunk table suffix from _data to _chunk
* Simplify schema usage: _timescaledb_internal for internal functions.
* _timescaledb_catalog for metadata tables.
* Remove postgres_fdw dependency
* Improve code comments in sql code
remove all murmur3-related source code. Alter regression tests
to reflect new hash values for inputs, and a slightly different
set of input data to ensure that sufficient chunks and partitions
are tested. Some changes to .sh scripts in sql/setup that seem
to be used only to power the "unit tests", which I cannot
yet run successfully.
Previously, each test set their own (although mostly the same)
configuration for log output and error verbosity. This is now set
globally in the test runner so that tests only need to set these
configuration parameters if they need to override the defaults. The
log verbosity is also reduced so that errors aren't generated with the
line number of the source file that output the error. Line numbers in
the output can break tests when upgrading to a new PostgreSQL version
that outputs a different line number.
