Pull request overview

This PR imports the gp_url_tools extension (URL/URI encode/decode utilities) into Apache Cloudberry and wires it into the gpcontrib build + CI installcheck runs. It also includes a few small fixes/typo cleanups in existing code paths.

Changes:

• Add new gp_url_tools gpcontrib extension (C implementation, extension SQL/control, README, regression tests).
• Integrate the extension into gpcontrib build targets and GitHub Actions installcheck matrices.
• Fix a syscache lifetime bug in GetExtStatisticsName() and rename transfromColumnEncodingAocoRootPartition → transformColumnEncodingAocoRootPartition.

• The comment text has a few grammatical issues that make it harder to follow (e.g., “used”, “relate”, “only validate”). Consider tightening it so the intent is clear.

				/* For the aoco, used `transformColumnEncodingAocoRootPartition` to
				 * pass encoding clause in root partition. The logic in that method is
				 * relate to aoco that means it only validate and pass the aoco encoding
				 * clause options. So we have to give up pass root partition encoding
				 * clause options in other access methods which implements the call back.
