Refactor COPY FROM to use format callback functions.
This commit introduces a new CopyFromRoutine struct, which is a set of
callback routines to read tuples in a specific format. It also makes
COPY FROM with the existing formats (text, CSV, and binary) utilize
these format callbacks.
This change is a preliminary step towards making the COPY FROM command
extensible in terms of input formats.
Similar to 2e4127b6d2d, this refactoring contributes to a performance
improvement by reducing the number of "if" branches that need to be
checked on a per-row basis when sending field representations in text
or CSV mode. The performance benchmark results showed ~5% performance
gain in text or CSV mode.
