Heikki Linnakangas 647b85fc15 Update pgvector to v0.6.0, third attempt
This includes a compatibility patch that is needed because pgvector
now skips WAL-logging during the index build, and WAL-logs the index
only in one go at the end. That's how GIN, GiST and SP-GIST index
builds work in core PostgreSQL too, but we need some Neon-specific
calls to mark the beginning and end of those build phases.

pgvector is the first index AM that does that with parallel workers,
so I had to modify those functions in the Neon extension to be aware
of parallel workers. Only the leader needs to create the underlying
file and perform the WAL-logging. (In principle, the parallel workers
could participate in the WAL-logging too, but pgvector doesn't do
that. This will need some further work if that changes).

The previous attempt at this (#6592) missed that parallel workers
needed those changes, and segfaulted in parallel build that spilled to
disk.

Testing
-------

We don't have a place for regression tests of extensions at the
moment. I tested this manually with the following script:

```
CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS vector;

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS tst;
CREATE TABLE tst (i serial, v vector(3));

INSERT INTO tst (v) SELECT ARRAY[random(), random(), random()] FROM generate_series(1, 15000) g;

-- Serial build, in memory
ALTER TABLE tst SET (parallel_workers=0);
SET maintenance_work_mem='50 MB';
CREATE INDEX idx ON tst USING hnsw (v vector_l2_ops);

-- Test that the index works. (The table contents are random, and the
-- search is approximate anyway, so we cannot check the exact values.
-- For now, just eyeball that they look reasonable)
set enable_seqscan=off;
explain SELECT * FROM tst ORDER BY v <-> ARRAY[0, 0, 0]::vector LIMIT 5;
SELECT * FROM tst ORDER BY v <-> ARRAY[0, 0, 0]::vector LIMIT 5;

DROP INDEX idx;

-- Serial build, spills to on disk

ALTER TABLE tst SET (parallel_workers=0);
SET maintenance_work_mem='5 MB';
CREATE INDEX idx ON tst USING hnsw (v vector_l2_ops);
SELECT * FROM tst ORDER BY v <-> ARRAY[0, 0, 0]::vector LIMIT 5;
DROP INDEX idx;

-- Parallel build, in memory

ALTER TABLE tst SET (parallel_workers=4);
SET maintenance_work_mem='50 MB';
CREATE INDEX idx ON tst USING hnsw (v vector_l2_ops);
SELECT * FROM tst ORDER BY v <-> ARRAY[0, 0, 0]::vector LIMIT 5;
DROP INDEX idx;

-- Parallel build, spills to disk

ALTER TABLE tst SET (parallel_workers=4);
SET maintenance_work_mem='5 MB';
CREATE INDEX idx ON tst USING hnsw (v vector_l2_ops);
SELECT * FROM tst ORDER BY v <-> ARRAY[0, 0, 0]::vector LIMIT 5;
DROP INDEX idx;
