overhead for every connection, per Tom.

RETURNING play nice with views/rules.  To wit, have the rule rewriter
rewrite any RETURNING clause found in a rule to produce what the rule's
triggering query asked for in its RETURNING clause, in particular drop
the RETURNING clause if no RETURNING in the triggering query.  This
leaves the responsibility for knowing how to produce the view's output
columns on the rule author, without requiring any fundamental changes
in rule semantics such as adding new rule event types would do.  The
initial implementation constrains things to ensure that there is
exactly one, unconditionally invoked RETURNING clause among the rules
for an event --- later we might be able to relax that, but for a post
feature freeze fix it seems better to minimize how much invention we do.
Per gripe from Jaime Casanova.

"server_version" but uses the handy PG_VERSION_NUM which allows apps to
do things like if ($version >= 80200) without having to parse apart the
value of server_version themselves.

queries via a cursor, fetching a limited number of rows at a time and
therefore not risking exhausting memory.  A disadvantage of the scheme
is that 'aligned' output mode will align each group of rows independently
leading to odd-looking output, but all the other output formats work
reasonably well.  Chris Mair, with some additional hacking by moi.

Fix printing of NULL bind parameters, use "NULL".

existing for backend GUC variables, and use this to eliminate repeated
fetching/parsing of psql variables in psql's inner loops.  In a trivial
test with lots of 'select 1;' commands, psql's CPU time went down almost
10%, although of course the effect on total elapsed time was much less.
Per discussion about how to ensure the upcoming FETCH_COUNT patch doesn't
cost any performance when not being used.

Changed file paths in expected files too.

Streamlined connection name parsing.
Added Joachim's patch to shorten paths before diffing.
