process of dropping roles by dropping objects owned by them and privileges
granted to them, or giving the owned objects to someone else, through the
use of the data stored in the new pg_shdepend catalog.

Some refactoring of the GRANT/REVOKE code was needed, as well as ALTER OWNER
code.  Further cleanup of code duplication in the GRANT code seems necessary.

Implemented by me after an idea from Tom Lane, who also provided various kind
of implementation advice.

Regression tests pass.  Some tests for the new functionality are also added,
as well as rudimentary documentation.

        - supports multibyte encodings
        - more strict rules for lexemes
        - flex isn't used
Add:
        - tsquery plainto_tsquery(text)
          Function makes tsquery from plain text.
        - &&, ||, !! operation for tsquery for combining
          tsquery from it's parts:  'foo & bar' || 'asd' => 'foo & bar | asd'

the convenience of tuptoaster.c and is no longer needed, so may as well
get rid of some small amount of overhead.

tuple in-place, but instead passes back an all-new tuple structure if
any changes are needed.  This is a much cleaner and more robust solution
for the bug discovered by Alexey Beschiokov; accordingly, revert the
quick hack I installed yesterday.
With this change, HeapTupleData.t_datamcxt is no longer needed; will
remove it in a separate commit in HEAD only.

doing heap_insert or heap_update, wipe out any extracted fields in
the TupleTableSlot containing the tuple, because they might not be valid
anymore if tuptoaster.c changed the tuple.  Safe because slot must be
in the materialized state, but mighty ugly --- find a better answer!

be useful to actually do something with nulls, rather than reject them,
but I'll just close the hole for now.

the array (for array_push) or higher-dimensional array (for array_cat)
rather than decrementing it as before.  This avoids generating lower
bounds other than one for any array operation within the SQL spec.  Per
recent discussion.
Interestingly, this seems to have been the original behavior, because
while updating the docs I noticed that a large fraction of relevant
examples were *wrong* for the old behavior and are now right.  Is it
worth correcting this in the back-branch docs?

recursed twice on its first argument, leading to exponential time spent
on a deep nest of COALESCEs ... such as a deeply nested FULL JOIN would
produce.  Per report from Matt Carter.

translate undef to NULL for result arrayref, now that we allow NULLs in arrays. Update plperl regression test accordingly.

functionality, but I still need to make another pass looking at places
that incidentally use arrays (such as ACL manipulation) to make sure they
are null-safe.  Contrib needs work too.
I have not changed the behaviors that are still under discussion about
array comparison and what to do with lower bounds.

that was added to localbuf.c in 8.1; therefore, applying it to a temp table
left corrupt lookup state in memory.  The only case where this had a
significant chance of causing problems was an ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS temp
table; the other possible paths left bogus state that was unlikely to
be used again.  Per report from Csaba Nagy.

NetBSD patched updated, with documentation.

sense and rename to "outerjoin_delayed" to more clearly reflect what it
means).  I had decided that it was redundant in 8.1, but the folly of this
is exposed by a bug report from Sebastian Böck.  The place where it's
needed is to prevent orindxpath.c from cherry-picking arms of an outer-join
OR clause to form a relation restriction that isn't actually legal to push
down to the relation scan level.  There may be some legal cases that this
forbids optimizing, but we'd need much closer analysis to determine it.

Cosmetic fix only.

slot of the topmost plan node when a trigger returns a modified tuple.
These appear to be the only places where a plan node's caller did not
treat the result slot as read-only, which is an assumption that nodeUnique
makes as of 8.1.  Fixes trigger-vs-DISTINCT bug reported by Frank van Vugt.

the generic problem of surprising implicit casts to text, but it's a
low-impact way of making sure this particular case behaves sanely.
