PostgreSQL Global Temporary Tables

pgtt is a PostgreSQL extension to create, manage and use Oracle-style Global Temporary Tables.

The main interest of this extension is to reproduce Oracle behavior with GTT when you can not or don't want to rewrite the application code when migrating to PostgreSQL. In all other case best is to rewrite the code to use standard PostgreSQL temporary tables.

This is a maintenance release to add support for upcomming PostgreSQL 14 and fixed some issues reported in the past three months.

• Add support to PostgreSQL 14. Thanks to Devrim Gunduz for the report and MigOps Inc for the patch.
• Remove support to PG 9.5 which obviously was not working. Minimal PostgreSQL version for this extension is 9.6.
• Fix documentation menu.
• Fix creation of GTT when there is a CHECK constraint with string constant.
