Daniel Gustafsson 8d48e84c56 Fix guc_malloc calls for consistency and OOM checks
check_createrole_self_grant and check_synchronized_standby_slots
were allocating memory on a LOG elevel without checking if the
allocation succeeded or not, which would have led to a segfault
on allocation failure.

On top of that, a number of callsites were using the ERROR level,
relying on erroring out rather than returning false to allow the
GUC machinery handle it gracefully.  Other callsites used WARNING
instead of LOG.  While neither being not wrong, this changes all
check_ functions do it consistently with LOG.

init_custom_variable gets a promoted elevel to FATAL to keep
the guc_malloc error handling in line with the rest of the
error handling in that function which already call FATAL.  If
we encounter an OOM in this callsite there is no graceful
handling to be had, better to error out hard.

Backpatch the fix to check_createrole_self_grant down to v16
and the fix to check_synchronized_standby_slots down to v17
where they were introduced.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
