Jian, how do you think this comment?
Looking back at the discussion so far, it seems that not everyone thinks
saving table information is the best idea[1] and some people think just
skipping error data is useful.[2]
Since there are issues to be considered from the design such as
physical/logical replication treatment, putting error information to
table is likely to take time for consensus building and development.
Wouldn't it be better to follow the following advice and develop the
functionality incrementally?

Attached a patch for this "first step" with reference to v7 patch, which
logged errors and simpler than latest one.
- This patch adds new option SAVE_ERROR_TO, but currently only supports
'none', which means just skips error data. It is expected to support
'log' and 'table'.
- This patch Skips just soft errors and don't handle other errors such
as missing column data.
BTW I have question and comment about v15 patch:

Have you measured this?
When I tested it in an older patch, there were no big difference[3].

SECURITY SELECT
There was a comment that we shouldn't add new keyword for this[4].
I left as it was in v7 patch regarding these points.
