 * session.c
 *		Encapsulation of user session.
 *
 * This is intended to contain data that needs to be shared between backends
 * performing work for a client session.  In particular such a session is
 * shared between the leader and worker processes for parallel queries.  At
 * some later point it might also become useful infrastructure for separating
 * backends from client connections, e.g. for the purpose of pooling.
 *
 * Currently this infrastructure is used to share:
 * - typemod registry for ephemeral row-types, i.e. BlessTupleDesc etc.
