2021-01-31 [0c4f355c6] Fix parsing of complex morphs to tsquery
-->
<para>
Fix to_tsquery() and websearch_to_tsquery() to properly parse certain discarded tokens in quotes (Alexander Korotkov)
</para>
<para>
Certain discarded tokens, like underscore, caused the output of these functions to produce incorrect tsquery output, e.g., websearch_to_tsquery('"pg_class pg"') used to output '( pg &amp; class )
&lt;-&gt; pg',but now outputs 'pg &lt;-&gt; class &lt;-&gt; pg'.

Fix websearch_to_tsquery() to properly parse multiple adjacent discarded tokens in quotes (Alexander Korotkov)

DETAILS? ALREADY CHANGED ABOVE.
Previously, quoted text that contained multiple adjacent discarded tokens were treated as multiple tokens, causing incorrect tsquery output, e.g., websearch_to_tsquery('"aaa: bbb"') used to output
'aaa &lt;2&gt; bbb', but now outputs 'aaa &lt;-&gt; bbb'.
