int8, int16, int32, int64 and separately uint8, uint16, uint32, uint64

The previous patch grouped:
int8, int16 and int32
uint8, uint16 and uint32
int64 and uint64  <-- this grouping is wrong on AIX 4.3.3 and below

If you prefer to make 4 groups out of this you could apply this patch.

There's also a little fix for the getRow() method. While fixing
absolute(), I noticed that getRow() wasn't quite following the spec: it
wasn't returning 0 when the ResultSet wasn't positioned on a row.  I've
started a ResultSet test case and included it as well.

bpchar, bit, numeric with typmod -1.  Alter format_type so that this
representation is printed when the typmod is -1.  This ensures that
tables having such columns can be pg_dump'd and reloaded correctly.
Also, remove the rather useless and non-SQL-compliant default
precision and scale for type NUMERIC.  A numeric column declared as
such (with no precision/scale) will now have typmod -1 which means
that numeric values of any precision/scale can be stored in it,
without conversion to a uniform scale.  This seems significantly
more useful than the former behavior.  Part of response to bug #513.

use that typmod not -1 as the typmod of the CASE result.

typmod of a particular column, mark the output with that same typmod,
not -1 as formerly.  -1 is still used if there is any disagreement.
