Tom Lane 48e2b234f8 Fix COMMIT/ROLLBACK AND CHAIN in the presence of subtransactions.
In older branches, COMMIT/ROLLBACK AND CHAIN failed to propagate
the current transaction's properties to the new transaction if
there was any open subtransaction (unreleased savepoint).
Instead, some previous transaction's properties would be restored.
This is because the "if (s->chain)" check in CommitTransactionCommand
examined the wrong instance of the "chain" flag and falsely
concluded that it didn't need to save transaction properties.

Our regression tests would have noticed this, except they used
identical transaction properties for multiple tests in a row,
so that the faulty behavior was not distinguishable from correct
behavior.

Commit 12d768e70 fixed the problem in v15 and later, but only rather
accidentally, because I removed the "if (s->chain)" test to avoid a
compiler warning, while not realizing that the warning was flagging a
real bug.

In v14 and before, remove the if-test and save transaction properties
unconditionally; just as in the newer branches, that's not expensive
enough to justify thinking harder.

Add the comment and extra regression test to v15 and later to
forestall any future recurrence, but there's no live bug in those
branches.

Patch by me, per bug #18118 from Liu Xiang.  Back-patch to v12 where
the AND CHAIN feature was added.

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:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

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
