It seems potentially useful to label our shared libraries with version
information, now that a facility exists for retrieving that. This
patch labels them with the PG_VERSION string. There was some
discussion about using semantic versioning conventions, but that
doesn't seem terribly helpful for modules with no SQL-level presence;
and for those that do have SQL objects, we typically expect them
to support multiple revisions of the SQL definitions, so it'd still
not be very helpful.
I did not label any of src/test/modules/. It seems unnecessary since
we don't install those, and besides there ought to be someplace that
still provides test coverage for the original PG_MODULE_MAGIC macro.

This makes almost all core code follow the policy introduced in the
previous commit. Specific decisions:
- Text search support functions with char* and length arguments, such as
prsstart and lexize, may receive unaligned strings. I doubt
maintainers of non-core text search code will notice.
- Use plain VARDATA() on values detoasted or synthesized earlier in the
same function. Use VARDATA_ANY() on varlenas sourced outside the
function, even if they happen to always have four-byte headers. As an
exception, retain the universal practice of using VARDATA() on return
values of SendFunctionCall().
- Retain PG_GETARG_BYTEA_P() in pageinspect. (Page images are too large
for a one-byte header, so this misses no optimization.) Sites that do
not call get_page_from_raw() typically need the four-byte alignment.
- For now, do not change btree_gist. Its use of four-byte headers in
memory is partly entangled with storage of 4-byte headers inside
GBT_VARKEY, on disk.
- For now, do not change gtrgm_consistent() or gtrgm_distance(). They
incorporate the varlena header into a cache, and there are multiple
credible implementation strategies to consider.

Invent a new function heap_modify_tuple_by_cols() that is functionally
equivalent to SPI_modifytuple except that it always allocates its result
by simple palloc. I chose however to make the API details a bit more
like heap_modify_tuple: pass a tupdesc rather than a Relation, and use
bool convention for the isnull array.
Use this function in place of SPI_modifytuple at all call sites where the
intended behavior is to allocate in current context. (There actually are
only two call sites left that depend on the old behavior, which makes me
wonder if we should just drop this function rather than keep it.)
This new function is easier to use than heap_modify_tuple() for purposes
of replacing a single column (or, really, any fixed number of columns).
There are a number of places where it would simplify the code to change
over, but I resisted that temptation for the moment ... everywhere except
in plpgsql's exec_assign_value(); changing that might offer some small
performance benefit, so I did it.
This is on the way to removing SPI_push/SPI_pop, but it seems like
good code cleanup in its own right.

There's basically no scenario where it's sensible for this to match
dropped columns, so put a test for dropped-ness into SPI_fnumber()
itself, and excise the test from the small number of callers that
were paying attention to the case. (Most weren't :-(.)
In passing, normalize tests at call sites: always reject attnum <= 0
if we're disallowing system columns. Previously there was a mixture
of "< 0" and "<= 0" tests. This makes no practical difference since
SPI_fnumber() never returns 0, but I'm feeling pedantic today.
Also, in the places that are actually live user-facing code and not
legacy cruft, distinguish "column not found" from "can't handle
system column".
Per discussion with Jim Nasby; thi supersedes his original patch
that just changed the behavior at one call site.

Because of gcc -Wmissing-prototypes, all functions in dynamically
loadable modules must have a separate prototype declaration. This is
meant to detect global functions that are not declared in header files,
but in cases where the function is called via dfmgr, this is redundant.
Besides filling up space with boilerplate, this is a frequent source of
compiler warnings in extension modules.
We can fix that by creating the function prototype as part of the
PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1 macro, which such modules have to use anyway. That
makes the code of modules cleaner, because there is one less place where
the entry points have to be listed, and creates an additional check that
functions have the right prototype.
Remove now redundant prototypes from contrib and other modules.

This lets us stop including rel.h into execnodes.h, which is a widely
used header.

Various places were testing TRIGGER_FIRED_BEFORE() where what they really
meant was !TRIGGER_FIRED_AFTER(), or vice versa. This needs to be cleaned
up because there are about to be more than two possible states.
We might want to note this in the 9.1 release notes as something for
trigger authors to double-check.
For consistency's sake I also changed some places that assumed that
TRIGGER_FIRED_FOR_ROW and TRIGGER_FIRED_FOR_STATEMENT are necessarily
mutually exclusive; that's not in immediate danger of breaking, but
it's still sloppier than it should be.
Extracted from Dean Rasheed's patch for triggers on views. I'm committing
this separately since it's an identifiable separate issue, and is the
only reason for the patch to touch most of these particular files.

not include postgres.h nor anything else it doesn't directly need. Add
#includes to calling files as needed to compensate. Per my proposal of
yesterday.
This should be noted as a source code change in the 8.4 release notes,
since it's likely to require changes in add-on modules.

This particular batch was just for *.c and *.h file.
The changes were made with the following 2 commands:
find . \( \( -name 'libstemmer' -o -name 'expected' -o -name 'ppport.h' \) -prune \) -o \( -name '*.[ch]' \) \( -exec grep -q '\$PostgreSQL' {} \; -o -print \) | while read file ; do head -n 1 < $file | grep -q '^/\*' && echo $file; done | xargs -l sed -i -e '1s/^\// /' -e '1i/*\n * $PostgreSQL:$ \n *'
find . \( \( -name 'libstemmer' -o -name 'expected' -o -name 'ppport.h' \) -prune \) -o \( -name '*.[ch]' \) \( -exec grep -q '\$PostgreSQL' {} \; -o -print \) | xargs -l sed -i -e '1i/*\n * $PostgreSQL:$ \n */'

strings. This patch introduces four support functions cstring_to_text,
cstring_to_text_with_len, text_to_cstring, and text_to_cstring_buffer, and
two macros CStringGetTextDatum and TextDatumGetCString. A number of
existing macros that provided variants on these themes were removed.
Most of the places that need to make such conversions now require just one
function or macro call, in place of the multiple notational layers that used
to be needed. There are no longer any direct calls of textout or textin,
and we got most of the places that were using handmade conversions via
memcpy (there may be a few still lurking, though).
This commit doesn't make any serious effort to eliminate transient memory
leaks caused by detoasting toasted text objects before they reach
text_to_cstring. We changed PG_GETARG_TEXT_P to PG_GETARG_TEXT_PP in a few
places where it was easy, but much more could be done.

Standard English uses "may", "can", and "might" in different ways:
may - permission, "You may borrow my rake."
can - ability, "I can lift that log."
might - possibility, "It might rain today."
Unfortunately, in conversational English, their use is often mixed, as
in, "You may use this variable to do X", when in fact, "can" is a better
choice. Similarly, "It may crash" is better stated, "It might crash".

has an alias SERIAL4 and a sister SERIAL8. SERIAL8 is just the same
except the created column is type int8 not int4.
initdb forced. Note this also breaks any chance of pg_upgrade from 7.1,
unless we hack up pg_upgrade to drop and recreate sequences. (Which is
not out of the question, but I don't wanna do it.)

in pghackers list. Support for oldstyle internal functions is gone
(no longer needed, since conversion is complete) and pg_language entry
'internal' now implies newstyle call convention. pg_language entry
'newC' is gone; both old and newstyle dynamically loaded C functions
are now called language 'C'. A newstyle function must be identified
by an associated info routine. See src/backend/utils/fmgr/README.

one of updating the whole text datatype, but there are so dang many
calls of these two routines that it seems worth a separate commit.

quote-stripping, and acl-checking tasks for these functions from the
parser, and do them at function execution time instead. This fixes
the failure of pg_dump to produce correct output for nextval(Foo)
used in a rule, and also eliminates the restriction that the argument
of these functions must be a parse-time constant.
