## What changed?
Add "start_time" nullable column to the current_executions table.
Some refactoring of the existing code - send row as a parameter rather
then every single field of that row.
## Why?
Adding column - to allow fast checking workflow creation time to avoid
noisy workflow restarts. Without it we need to get workflow start time
from a mutable state, which can affect latency.
## Is hotfix candidate?
No
## What changed?
Both our PostgreSQL and MySQL database backends will now automatically
reconnect to the database when certain errors occur: all errors chosen
have been experienced when testing this behavior through an AWS Aurora
RDS failover of either MySQL or PostgreSQL.
For both backends we will reconnect when we see:
- `ECONNRESET`
- `ECONNABORTED`
- `ECONNREFUSED`
- `io.EOF`
- `io.ErrUnexpectedEOF`
- `database/sql/driver.ErrBadConn`
for postgres we will also reconnect on the following SQLStates:
- `25006` read-only transaction
- `57P03` cannot connect now
- `0A000` feature not supported, but ONLY when the message is `cannot
set transaction read-write mode during recovery`
for mysql we will also reconnect when we see the following error codes:
- `1040` too many connections
- `1792` read-only transaction (SQLstate `25006`)
- `1836` running in read-only mode
This logic is easily extensible should we discover more failure modes
over time
## Why?
We've had multiple community reports of Temporal problems during RDS
failover. One part of this is the fact that we wouldn't necessarily
reconnect; we were at the whims of our chosen SQL abstraction's
connection pooling logic.
## How did you test it?
I manually tested this functionality in the presence of repeated RDS
failovers:
- [x] postgres12 plugin with pq driver
- [x] postgres12 plugin with pgx driver
- [x] mysql plugin
Automated testing will be added to our regular testing pipelines once
our infrastructure friends have added the support I need (it's in
progress)
## Potential risks
We're concerned there's a correctness issue in our PostgreSQL backend
that's related to our behavior during an RDS failover. If we merge this
before I figure out what's going on, we could hide the issue and make it
harder to reproduce.

Yes?
- support pagination for sql GetTransfer/VisibilityTasks
- improve pagination for sql GetTimer/ReplicationTasks
- new ExecutionMutableStateTaskSuite suite
* Add db version attribute to executions table for better CAS guarantee
* 1.9.x will by default use existing next event ID for CAS, but will also support the new DB version CAS
* 1.10.x will by default use DB version CAS
Last event ID is not enough for CAS operation protection: e.g. activity heartbeat / buffer events.
The newly introduced DB version will be increased by 1 each time execution table is updated (update to mutable state record).
* Split TransferTasksFilter into TransferTasksFilter and TransferTasksRangeFilter
* Split SelectFromTransferTasks into SelectFromTransferTasks and RangeSelectFromTransferTasks
* Split DeleteFromTransferTasks into DeleteFromTransferTasks and RangeDeleteFromTransferTasks
* Split TimerTasksFilter into TimerTasksFilter and TimerTasksRangeFilter
* Split SelectFromTimerTasks into SelectFromTimerTasks and RangeSelectFromTimerTasks
* Split DeleteFromTimerTasks into DeleteFromTimerTasks and RangeDeleteFromTimerTasks
