This issue is part of #2157455: [Meta] Make Drupal 8 work with PostgreSQL or remove support from core before release.
Problem/Motivation
Some migrate tables use reserved keywords as column name like OFFSET currently causing exceptions on PostgreSQL because such names need quoting to work. As this is somehow not a problem for MySQL we decided to add support for PostgreSQL also by adding quotes where needed.
Proposed resolution
- Add new reserved words for PostgreSQL 9.1.2 and other versions.
- Ensure quoting for column names on insert/update/delete for reserved words.
- Add tests to ensure quoting for column names.
