Tweak the API for per-datatype typmodin functions so that they are passed
an array of strings rather than an array of integers, and allow any simple constant or identifier to be used in typmods; for example create table foo (f1 widget(42,'23skidoo',point)); Of course the typmodin function has still got to pack this info into a non-negative int32 for storage, but it's still a useful improvement in flexibility, especially considering that you can do nearly anything if you are willing to keep the info in a side table. We can get away with this change since we have not yet released a version providing user-definable typmods. Per discussion.
