This commit introduces two new flags for jsonb assignment: * JB_PATH_FILL_GAPS: Appending array elements on the specified position, gaps are filled with nulls (similar to the JavaScript behavior). This mode also instructs to create the whole path in a jsonb object if some part of the path (more than just the last element) is not present. * JB_PATH_CONSISTENT_POSITION: Assigning keeps array positions consistent by preventing prepending of elements. Both flags are used only in jsonb subscripting assignment. Initially proposed by Nikita Glukhov based on polymorphic subscripting patch, but transformed into an independent change.
