+1. I wonder if we should also consider checking all the bits at once
before we start checking for the predefined roles. I'm thinking of
something a bit like this:
role_mask = ACL_SELECT | ACL_INSERT | ACL_UPDATE |
ACL_DELETE | ACL_VACUUM | ACL_ANALYZE;
if (mask & role_mask != result & role_mask)
{
... existing checks here ...
}
I'm skeptical this actually produces any measurable benefit, but presumably
the predefined roles list will continue to grow, so maybe it's still worth
adding a fast path.
