this is kind of hard to comprehend.
so attached is a simple version of it based on v8.

for copy (on_error set_to_null)
1. not allow specifying reject_limit option
2. ereport ERROR for not-null constraint violation for domain type.
for example:
CREATE DOMAIN d_int_not_null AS INT NOT NULL CHECK(value > 0);
CREATE TABLE t1 (a d_int_not_null);
COPY t1 FROM STDIN WITH (on_error set_to_null);

these 3 values: \N    a    -1
will error out, the error message will be:
ERROR:  domain d_int_not_null does not allow null values

Subject: [PATCH v9 1/1] new COPY on_error option: set_to_null

extent "on_error action", introduce new option: on_error set_to_null.
due to current grammar, we cannot use "on_error null", so i choose on_error set_to_null.

any data type conversion errors while the COPY FROM process will set that column value to be NULL.
this will only work with COPY FROM with non-binary format.

However this will respect the not-null constraint, meaning, if you actually
converted error to null, but the column has not-null constraint, not-null
constraint violation ERROR will be reported.

regress test contains corner case for not-null with domain constraint.
