    Update examples for string-related functions. · c59b8ba6

    In the example for decode(), show the bytea result in hex format,
    since that's now the default.  Use an E'' string in the example for
    quote_literal(), so that it works regardless of the
    standard_conforming_strings setting.  On the functions-for-binary-strings
    page, leave the examples as-is for readability, but add a note pointing out
    that they are shown in escape format.  Per comments from Thom Brown.
    
    Also, improve the description for encode() and decode() a tad.
    
    Backpatch to 9.0, where bytea_output was introduced.
