Here is v4.

0001 - addresses the comments made by Bertrand.
0002 - makes JumbleState a constant when passed to post_parse_analyze
and updates all downstream code that consume the JumbleState. This
means we now need to copy the locations from JState into a local/temporary
array when generating the normalized string.

Subject: [PATCH v4 2/2] Make JumbleState const in post_parse_analyze hook

Change the post_parse_analyze_hook_type signature to take a const
JumbleState parameter, preventing hooks from modifying the jumble
state during query analysis. This improves API safety by making it
clear that hooks should only read from the jumble state, not modify
it.

Update pg_stat_statements and related functions to match the new const
signature. Refactor SetConstantLengths() to return a newly allocated
LocationLen array instead of modifying the JumbleState, and update
GenerateNormalizedQuery() to work with the const JumbleState and
manage the returned array properly.

Subject: [PATCH v4 1/2] pg_stat_statements: Move query normalization to core

pg_stat_statements was modifying core generated JumbleState instances
by calling fill_in_constant_lengths() via generate_normalized_query()
to populate constant lengths. This creates problems since extensions
should not modify shared core data structures that may be used by
other extensions, and this could be considered a layering violation.

Move query normalization functions to core as a global function to
fix this. Extensions now call GenerateNormalizedQuery() instead of
directly modifying JumbleState.

This change also addresses code duplication, as several extensions
have been copying generate_normalized_query() to implement their own
normalization. The new core API provides a single, consistent
implementation for all extensions to use.

Functions are renamed to match core naming conventions and comments
are updated for clarity.
