commit    c0386f403a832f50d61fc7bb9bb265f7700273f3
Author:   Tomas Vondra <tomas.vondra@postgresql.org>
Date:     Mon Sep 20 23:13:11 2021 +0000
First released in: 15.0, 10.19, 11.14, 12.9, 13.5, 14.0

    Release memory allocated by dependency_degree
    
    Calculating degree of a functional dependency may allocate a lot of
    memory - we have released mot of the explicitly allocated memory, but
    e.g. detoasted varlena values were left behind. That may be an issue,
    because we consider a lot of dependencies (all combinations), and the
    detoasting may happen for each one again.
    
    Fixed by calling dependency_degree() in a dedicated context, and
    resetting it after each call. We only need the calculated dependency
    degree, so we don't need to copy anything.
    
    Backpatch to PostgreSQL 10, where extended statistics were introduced.
    
    Backpatch-through: 10
