Subject: Add server support for "plugin" libraries that can be used for add-on
 tasks such as debugging and performance measurement.  This consists of two
 features: a table of "rendezvous variables" that allows separately-loaded
 shared libraries to communicate, and a new GUC setting
 "local_preload_libraries" that allows libraries to be loaded into specific
 sessions without explicit cooperation from the client application.  To make
 local_preload_libraries as flexible as possible, we do not restrict its use
 to superusers; instead, it is restricted to load only libraries stored in
 $libdir/plugins/.  The existing LOAD command has also been modified to allow
 non-superusers to LOAD libraries stored in this directory.

This patch also renames the existing GUC variable preload_libraries to
shared_preload_libraries (after a suggestion by Simon Riggs) and does some
code refactoring in dfmgr.c to improve clarity.

Korry Douglas, with a little help from Tom Lane.
