WAL log during inserts.

deciding whether a potential additional indexscan is redundant or not.  As now
coded, any use of a partial index that was already used in a previous AND arm
will be rejected as redundant.  This might be overly restrictive, but not
considering the point at all is definitely bad, as per example in bug #2441
from Arjen van der Meijden.  In particular, a clauseless scan of a partial
index was *never* considered redundant by the previous coding, and that's
surely wrong.  Being more flexible would also require some consideration
of how not to double-count the index predicate's selectivity.

the partial index predicate in the scan's "recheck condition".  Otherwise,
if the scan becomes lossy for lack of bitmap memory, we would fail to enforce
that returned rows satisfy the predicate.  Noted while studying bug #2441
from Arjen van der Meijden.

condition: when there are multiple possible index paths involving
ScalarArrayOpExprs, they are logically to be ANDed together not ORed.
This thinko was a direct consequence of trying to put the processing
inside generate_bitmap_or_paths(), which I now see was a bit too cute.
So pull it out and make the callers do it separately (there are only two
that need it anyway).  Partially responds to bug #2441 from Arjen van der Meijden.
There are some additional infelicities exposed by his example, but they
are also in 8.1.x, while this mistake is not.

not worth adding path.c to libpq.

called outside critsections. Small improvements in WAL

always has been, because it's not got any .globl declaration!  We've
been relying on the solaris_sparc.s code instead.  Rip it out.
(Not back-patched, since this is just cosmetic cleanup.)

Backpatch to 8.1.X.

throw warnings for 100%-SQL-standard constructs, clean up some minor
infelicities, try to un-break ecpg to the best of my ability.  (It's not clear
how ecpg is going to find out the setting of standard_conforming_strings,
though.)  I think pg_dump still needs work, too.

(relpages/reltuples).  To do this, create formal support in heapam.c for
"overwrite" tuple updates (including xlog replay capability) and use that
instead of the ad-hoc overwrites we'd been using in VACUUM and CREATE INDEX.
Take the responsibility for updating stats during CREATE INDEX out of the
individual index AMs, and do it where it belongs, in catalog/index.c.  Aside
from being more modular, this avoids having to update the same tuple twice in
some paths through CREATE INDEX.  It's probably not measurably faster, but
for sure it's a lot cleaner than before.

insertion and deletion, modify gistSplit() to do not use buffers.
