Re: on_error table, saving error info to a table

hi.

The previous discussion mentioned using built-in typed tables for the
error saving table.
It's doable.

first create an build-in composite type in system_functions.sql:
CREATE TYPE copy_error_saving AS(
userid oid,
copy_tbl oid,
filename text COLLATE "C",
lineno bigint,
line text COLLATE "C",
colname text COLLATE "C",
raw_field_value text COLLATE "C",
err_message text COLLATE "C",
err_detail text COLLATE "C",
errorcode text COLLATE "C"
);

then we can use it to create a table like:
CREATE TABLE error_saving_table OF copy_error_saving;

The downside of this:
If the pg_catalog composite (type copy_error_saving) were to change,
it could lead to potential compatibility issues.
We need to be confident that copy_error_saving definitions are
unlikely to occur in the future.

For the above type copy_error_saving, I am wondering, do we aslo need
add a timestamptz field like "starttime" to indicate COPY beginning time.

anyway, please take a look at the attached patch.
It introduces a built-in composite type, allowing users to simply use
CREATE TABLE x OF copy_error_saving
to create a table for storing COPY FROM error-related information.
