Add new make targets "world", "install-world" and "installcheck-world" to build, install and check just about everything.
In addition to everything built installed and tested by all, install and installcheck targets, these build HTML Docs,
build and test contrib, and test PLs and ECPG.

This adds the CREATE TABLE name OF type command, per SQL standard.

PQconnectStartParams. These are analogous to PQconnectdb and PQconnectStart
respectively. They differ from the legacy functions in that they accept
two NULL-terminated arrays, keywords and values, rather than conninfo
strings. This avoids the need to build the conninfo string in cases
where it might be inconvenient to do so. Includes documentation.

Also modify psql to utilize PQconnectdbParams rather than PQsetdbLogin.
This allows the new config parameter application_name to be set, which
in turn is displayed in the pg_stat_activity view and included in CSV
log entries. This will also ensure both new functions get regularly
exercised.

Joe Conway.

LogwrtRqst.Write can be set to non-existent FF log segment, we mustn't
try to send that in XLogSend().

Also fix similar bug in ReadRecord(), which I just introduced in the
ReadRecord() refactoring patch.

restore_command, if the connection to the primary server is lost. This
ensures that the standby can recover automatically, if the connection is
lost for a long time and standby falls behind so much that the required
WAL segments have been archived and deleted in the master.

This also makes standby_mode useful without streaming replication; the
server will keep retrying restore_command every few seconds until the
trigger file is found. That's the same basic functionality pg_standby
offers, but without the bells and whistles.

To implement that, refactor the ReadRecord/FetchRecord functions. The
FetchRecord() function introduced in the original streaming replication
patch is removed, and all the retry logic is now in a new function called
XLogReadPage(). XLogReadPage() is now responsible for executing
restore_command, launching walreceiver, and waiting for new WAL to arrive
from primary, as required.

This also changes the life cycle of walreceiver. When launched, it now only
tries to connect to the master once, and exits if the connection fails, or
is lost during streaming for any reason. The startup process detects the
death, and re-launches walreceiver if necessary.

- Allow (ineffective) use of 'require' in plperl
    If the required module is not already loaded then it dies.
    So "use strict;" now works in plperl.

- Pre-load the feature module if perl >= 5.10.
    So "use feature :5.10;" now works in plperl.

- Stored procedure subs are now given names.
    The names are not visible in ordinary use, but they make
    tools like Devel::NYTProf and Devel::Cover much more useful.

- Simplified and generalized the subroutine creation code.
    Now one code path for generating sub source code, not four.
    Can generate multiple 'use' statements with specific imports
    (which handles plperl.use_strict currently and can easily
    be extended to handle a plperl.use_feature=':5.12' in future).

- Disallows use of Safe version 2.20 which is broken for PL/Perl.

- Assorted minor optimizations by pre-growing data structures.

default of "plpgsql".  This is more reasonable than it was when the DO patch
was written, because we have since decided that plpgsql should be installed
by default.  Per discussion, having a parameter for this doesn't seem useful
enough to justify the risk of application breakage if the value is changed
unexpectedly.

Finally applied patch by Boszormenyi Zoltan <zb@cybertec.at> to add the new features his patches added to the docs.

regular applications. Also add a comment pointing out that tab-complition
for PREPARE TRANSACTION is missing on purpose.

You might think this is unnecessary since that interpreter is never used
to run code --- but it turns out that's wrong.  As of Tcl 8.5, the "clock"
command (alone among builtin Tcl commands) is partially implemented by
loaded-on-demand Tcl code, which means that it fails if there's not
unknown-command support, and also that it's impossible to run it directly
in a safe interpreter.  The way they get around the latter is that
Tcl_CreateSlave() automatically sets up an alias command that forwards any
execution of "clock" in a safe slave interpreter to its parent interpreter.
Thus, when attempting to execute "clock" in trusted pltcl, the command
actually executes in the "hold" interpreter, where it will fail if
unknown-command support hasn't been introduced by sourcing the standard
init.tcl script, which is done by Tcl_Init().  (This is a pretty dubious
design decision on the Tcl boys' part, if you ask me ... but they didn't.)

Back-patch all the way.  It's not clear that anyone would try to use ancient
versions of pltcl with a recent Tcl, but it's not clear they wouldn't, either.
Also add a regression test using "clock", in branches that have regression
test support for pltcl.
