Dynamic Dump callback event notifications during immediate restore

For developers who are invoking a dynamic dump and receiving notifications, the dynamic dump callback function will now receive event notifications during the immediate restore. When the user-defined dynamic dump callback function is invoked with the opcode parameter set to ctDDCBKstatus, the pdata parameter is of type pDDST. The DDST structure's phase field indicates which event occurred. The new event values for immediate restore are:

1. DDP_BEGINRESTORE: start of dump restore

2. DDP_BEGINFILE, DDP_PROGFILE, and DDP_ENDFILE events occur for each file restored from the backup.

3. DDP_ENDRESTORE: end of dump restore; pddst->errcod is zero if it succeeded or non-zero if it failed.

4. DDP_BEGINROLBAK: start of rollback to dump start time

5. DDP_ENDROLBAK: end of rollback to dump start time

6. DDP_BEGINCLNIDX: start cleaning index nodes

7. DDP_ENDCLNIDX: end of cleaning index nodes

8. DDP_BEGINUPDIFL: start of IFIL update

9. DDP_ENDUPDIFL: end of IFIL update

See ctdumpCallback() in ctree\source\ctdump.c for an example of a callback function that handles these events.

Stop when client callback function returns an error

If an error occurs in the client-side dynamic dump callback function, the server will not continue to perform the dump. In V11.2.3 and later, the logic has been modified so that any error returned by the client's dynamic dump callback function terminates the dynamic dump.

Note: This is a Compatibility Change.
