Subscripting for jsonb does not support slices, does not have a limit for the number of subscripts, and an assignment expects a replace value to have jsonb type. There is also one functional difference between assignment via subscripting and assignment via jsonb_set(). When an original jsonb container is NULL, the subscripting replaces it with an empty jsonb and proceeds with an assignment. For the sake of code reuse, we rearrange some parts of jsonb functionality to allow the usage of the same functions for jsonb_set and assign subscripting operation. The original idea belongs to Oleg Bartunov. Catversion is bumped.
