    Allow forcing nullness of columns during bootstrap. · eb68379c
    Andres Freund authored
    Bootstrap determines whether a column is null based on simple builtin
    rules. Those work surprisingly well, but nonetheless a few existing
    columns aren't set correctly. Additionally there is at least one patch
    sent to hackers where forcing the nullness of a column would be helpful.
    
    The boostrap format has gained FORCE [NOT] NULL for this, which will be
    emitted by genbki.pl when BKI_FORCE_(NOT_)?NULL is specified for a
    column in a catalog header.
    
    This patch doesn't change the marking of any existing columns.
