Rearrange pseudotypes.c to get rid of duplicative code.
Commit a5954de1 replaced a lot of manually-coded stub I/O routines with code generated by macros. That was a good idea but it didn't go far enough, because there were still manually-coded stub input routines for types that had live output routines. Refactor the macro so that we can generate just a stub input routine at need. Also create similar macros to generate stub binary I/O routines, since we have some of those now. The only stub functions that remain hand-coded are shell_in() and shell_out(), which need to be separate because they use different error messages. While here, rearrange the commentary to discuss each type not each function. This provides a better way to explain the *why* of which types need which support, rather than just duplicatively annotating the functions.
