### Description
As part of the cache building process, we create / update / migrate the catalog that each DB uses as a place to store event trigger information. The function that decides how this should be done was doing an explicit `case ... of` on the backend tag, instead of delegating to one of the backend classes. The downsides of this is that:
- it adds a "friction point" where the backend matters in the core of the engine, which is otherwise written to be almost entirely backend-agnostic
- it creates imports from deep in the engine to the `Backends`, which we try to restrict to a very small set of clearly identified files (the `Instances` files)
- it is currently implemented using a "catch all" default case, which might not always be correct for new backends
This PR makes the catalog updating process a part of `BackendMetadata`, and cleans the corresponding schema cache code.

## Description
As the name suggests, `DML.Internal` contains internal implementation details of RQL's DML. However, a lot of unrelated parts of the codebase still use some of the code it contains. This PR fixes this, and removes all imports of `RQL.DML.Internal` from outside of `RQL.DML`. Most of the time, this involves moving a function out of `DML.Internal` to an underlying module (see `getRolePermInfo`) or moving a function _back_ into it (see `checkRetCols`).
This PR also clarifies a bit the situation with `withTyAnn` and `withTypeAnn` by renaming the former into `withScalarTypeAnn` and moving them together. Worth noting: there might be a bug lurking in that function, as it doesn't seem to use the proper type annotations for some extension types!

### Description
Small PR that moves code out of `RQL.Types.hs`. Specifically, it moves `HasServerConfigCtx` to where `ServerConfigCtx` is defined. This removes code from `RQL.Types`, makes the dependency on `Server.Types` more explicit, and will make some further cleanups easier.

`encJFromAssocList` is broken since it does not appropriately escape the keys of the JSON dictionaries. Presumably it should.
This is a hotfix for a JSON encoding issue. Longer-term solutions are being discussed in hasura/graphql-engine-mono#3736.

### Motivation
While we strive to write clear code, we have historically struggled at Hasura with having very different styles and standards across the codebase. There's been efforts to standardize our coding style, we have an official styleguide that isn't maintained as closely as it should... We still have some work in front of us.
However, in the last ~year or so, there's been a huge push towards incrementally improving the situation. As part of this we've been blocking PRs that don't add enough comments, or don't improve the files that they touch.
While looking at `Hasura.GraphQL.Analyse`, it became apparent that this file did not meet the engineering standards that I would expect to see addressed during a code review. Some ways in which I think it falls short:
- lack of documentation
- no clear distinction between public / internal components
- "unidiomatic" Haskell code (such as using `Either Result Error`)
While there's no problem with a file looking like this during development, those issues should have been caught at review time. The fact that they weren't indicates a problem in our process that we will need to address: code quality and maintainability is paramount, and we all need to do our part.
### Description
This PR rewrites all of `Hasura.GraphQL.Analyze`, and adapts `Hasura.Server.OpenAPI` accordingly where needed. I've attempted to clarify names and add documentation based on my understanding of the code, and to clean what was unused (such as field variables). I don't think this PR is good enough as is, and I welcome criticism where I got my comments wrong / am happy to help y'all add more.
This PR makes one small change in the way error messages are reported (and adjusts the corresponding test accordingly); each error message is now prefixed with the path within the selection set:
```
⚠️ $.test.foo.bar.baz.mizpelled: field 'mizpelled' not found in object 'Baz'
```

### Motivation
#2338 introduced a way to validate REST queries against the metadata after a change, to properly report any inconsistency that would emerge from a change in the underlying structure of our schema. However, the way this was done was quite complex and error-prone. Namely: we would use the generated schema parsers to statically execute an introspection query, similar to the one we use for remote schemas, then parse the resulting bytestring as it were coming from a remote schema.
This led to several issues: the code was using remote schema primitives, and was associated with remote schema code, despite being unrelated, which led to absurd situations like creating fake `Variable`s whose type was also their name. A lot of the code had to deal with the fact that we might fail to re-parse our own schema. Additionally, some of it was dead code, that for some reason GHC did not warn about? But more fundamentally, this architecture decision creates a dependency between unrelated pieces of the engine: modifying the internal processing of root fields or the introspection of remote schemas now risks impacting the unrelated `OpenAPI` feature.
### Description
This PR decouples that process from the remote schema introspection logic and from the execution engine by making `Analyse` and `OpenAPI` work on the generic `G.SchemaIntrospection` instead. To accomplish this, it:
- adds `GraphQL.Parser.Schema.Convert`, to convert from our "live" schema back to a flat `SchemaIntrospection`
- persists in the schema cache the `admin` introspection generated when building the schema, and uses it both for validation and for generating the `OpenAPI`.
### Known issues and limitations
This adds a bit of memory pressure to the engine, as we persist the entire schema in the schema cache. This might be acceptable in the short-term, but we have several potential ideas going forward should this be a problem:
- cache the result of `Analyze`: when it becomes possible to build the `OpenAPI` purely with the result of `Analyze` without any additional schema information, then we could cache that instead, reducing the footprint
- caching the `OpenAPI`: if it doesn't need to change every time the endpoint is queried, then it should be possible to cache the entire `OpenAPI` object instead of the schema
- cache a copy of the `FieldParsers` used to generate the schema: as those are persisted through the GraphQL `Context`, and are the only input required to generate the `Schema`, making them accessible in the schema cache would allow us to have the exact same feature with no additional memory cost, at the price of a slightly slower and more complicated process (need to rebuild the `Schema` every time we query the OpenAPI endpoint)
- cache nothing at all, and rebuild the admin schema from scratch every time.

### Description
This PR extends the `RemoteSchema` parsers to also include remote relationships. This include a significant refactoring of the top level schema building blocks, since remote schemas can no longer be built in isolation: they have to be built within the same run of `MonadSchema` as the sources. It is originally taken from the changes in #3069 and was slightly adapted.
I highly recommend turning OFF whitespace in the Github UI for `Schema.hs`, since I've adjusted the indentation of two large functions.
### Warning
Given the lack of a feature flag, this PR technically **enables the feature**. While the metadata API is not plugged in, a savvy user could use `replace_metadata` to set a metadata that contains remote joins from remote schemas, and they would be enabled. Is this acceptable?

### Description
This small PR improves the representation of an endpoint method from `Text` to an enum of the supported methods. Additionally, it cleans some of the instances defined on surrounding types (such as Postgres-specific instances on Endpoint types).
Due to a name conflict, this makes `RQL.Types.Endpoint` impossible to re-export from `RQL.Types`, which in turn forces several other modules to import it explicitly, which I think is fine since we want to ultimately get rid of `RQL.Types`.

### Description
This PR improves the `Collect` module by re-ordering the functions to make clear what is public API and what is internal implementation. Furthermore, it makes use of `traverseOf` and `traverseFields` to reduce duplication. To do so, it also introduces a few more lenses in the rest of the codebase, and uses this opportunity to harmonize some structures that were not following our naming convention.
While the diff is massive, a lot of it is just code moving around; the file is now divided into separate sections:
- entry points: IR types for which we want to run the collection
- internal monadic structure
- internal traversals: functions that do nothing but drill down further
- actual transformations: the three cases where we do actually have work to do: selection sets on which we do want to insert join columns, extract remote relationships... those functions are left unchanged by this PR
- internal helpers

GitOrigin-RevId: f7cbecfae9eed9737b62acfa5848bfcf9d4651f6
### Description
This PR adds the ability to perform remote joins from remote schemas in the engine. To do so, we alter the definition of an `ExecutionStep` targeting a remote schema: the `ExecStepRemote` constructor now expects a `Maybe RemoteJoins`. This new argument is used when processing the execution step, in the transport layer (either `Transport.HTTP` or `Transport.WebSocket`).
For this `Maybe RemoteJoins` to be extracted from a parsed query, this PR also extends the `Execute.RemoteJoin.Collect` module, to implement "collection" from a selection set. Not only do those new functions extract the remote joins, but they also apply all necessary transformations to the selection sets (such as inserting the necessary "phantom" fields used as join keys).
Finally in `Execute.RemoteJoin.Join`, we make two changes. First, we now always look for nested remote joins, regardless of whether the join we just performed went to a source or a remote schema; and second we adapt our join tree logic according to the special cases that were added to deal with remote server edge cases.
Additionally, this PR refactors / cleans / documents `Execute.RemoteJoin.RemoteServer`. This is not required as part of this change and could be moved to a separate PR if needed (a similar cleanup of `Join` is done independently in #3894). It also introduces a draft of a new documentation page for this project, that will be refined in the release PR that ships the feature (either #3069 or a copy of it).
While this PR extends the engine, it doesn't plug such relationships in the schema, meaning that, as of this PR, the new code paths in `Join` are technically unreachable. Adding the corresponding schema code and, ultimately, enabling the metadata API will be done in subsequent PRs.
### Keeping track of concrete type names
The main change this PR makes to the existing `Join` code is to handle a new reserved field we sometimes use when targeting remote servers: the `__hasura_internal_typename` field. In short, a GraphQL selection set can sometimes "branch" based on the concrete "runtime type" of the object on which the selection happens:
```graphql
query {
author(id: 53478) {
... on Writer {
name
articles {
title
}
}
... on Artist {
name
articles {
title
}
}
}
}
```
If both of those `articles` are remote joins, we need to be able, when we get the answer, to differentiate between the two different cases. We do this by asking for `__typename`, to be able to decide if we're in the `Writer` or the `Artist` branch of the query.
To avoid further processing / customization of results, we only insert this `__hasura_internal_typename: __typename` field in the query in the case of unions of interfaces AND if we have the guarantee that we will processing the request as part of the remote joins "folding": that is, if there's any remote join in this branch in the tree. Otherwise, we don't insert the field, and we leave that part of the response untouched.

It makes sense to try to utilize multiple threads for metadata
operations since we expect them to come one at a time (and likely at
lower load periods anyway).
As noted, although we build roles in parallel now, the admin role is
still a bottleneck. For replace_metadata on huge_schema, on my machine
