really ought to run before canonicalize_qual, because it can now produce
forms that canonicalize_qual knows how to improve (eg, NOT clauses).
Also, because eval_const_expressions already knows about flattening
nested ANDs and ORs into N-argument form, the initial flatten_andors
pass in canonicalize_qual is now completely redundant and can be
removed.  This doesn't save a whole lot of code, but the time and
palloc traffic eliminated is a useful gain on large expression trees.

access: define new index access method functions 'amgetmulti' that can
fetch multiple TIDs per call.  (The functions exist but are totally
untested as yet.)  Since I was modifying pg_am anyway, remove the
no-longer-needed 'rel' parameter from amcostestimate functions, and
also remove the vestigial amowner column that was creating useless
work for Alvaro's shared-object-dependencies project.
Initdb forced due to changes in pg_am.

that is 'x = true' becomes 'x' and 'x = false' becomes 'NOT x'.  This isn't
all that amazingly useful in itself, but it ensures that we will recognize
the different forms as being logically equivalent when checking partial
index predicates.  Per example from Patrick Clery.

clean up itup.h a little bit.

structs.  There are many places in the planner where we were passing
both a rel and an index to subroutines, and now need only pass the
index struct.  Notationally simpler, and perhaps a tad faster.

for boolean indexes.  Previously we would only use such an index with
WHERE clauses like 'indexkey = true' or 'indexkey = false'.  The new
code transforms the cases 'indexkey', 'NOT indexkey', 'indexkey IS TRUE',
and 'indexkey IS FALSE' into one of these.  While this is only marginally
useful in itself, I intend soon to change constant-expression simplification
so that 'foo = true' and 'foo = false' are reduced to just 'foo' and
'NOT foo' ... which would lose the ability to use boolean indexes for
such queries at all, if the indexscan machinery couldn't make the
reverse transformation.

binary-compatible relabeling of one or both operands.  examine_variable
should avoid stripping RelabelType from non-variable expressions, so that
they will continue to have the correct type; and convert_to_scalar should
just use that type and ignore the other input type.  This isn't perfect
but it beats failing entirely.  Per example from Michael Fuhr.

checkInsertTargets().  Avoids O(N^2) behavior on wide target lists.

Also, some desultory const-labeling of constant tables.  More could be
done along that line.

This reduces header file install from 8 seconds to 0.40 seconds.

executing a statement that fires triggers.  Formerly this time was
included in "Total runtime" but not otherwise accounted for.
As a side benefit, we avoid re-opening relations when firing non-deferred
AFTER triggers, because the trigger code can re-use the main executor's
ResultRelInfo data structure.

This restores the system's ability to warn about leaks to what it was

The latter bug was masked by the ResourceOwner code, which is something
that should be changed.

Correct one mis-setting of freeval (which could at worst leak a few bytes

never-yet-vacuumed relation.  This restores the pre-8.0 behavior of
avoiding seqscans during initial data loading, while still allowing
reasonable optimization after a table has been vacuumed.  Several
regression test cases revert to 7.4-like behavior, which is probably
a good sign.  Per gripes from Keith Browne and others.

Also, change Win32 fsync to a new wal sync method called
