      Make various variables const (read-only). · 0d79c0a8
      Tom Lane authored
      These changes should generally improve correctness/maintainability.
      A nice side benefit is that several kilobytes move from initialized
      data to text segment, allowing them to be shared across processes and
      probably reducing copy-on-write overhead while forking a new backend.
      Unfortunately this doesn't seem to help libpq in the same way (at least
      not when it's compiled with -fpic on x86_64), but we can hope the linker
      at least collects all nominally-const data together even if it's not
      actually part of the text segment.
      
      Also, make pg_encname_tbl[] static in encnames.c, since there seems
      no very good reason for any other code to use it; per a suggestion
      from Wim Lewis, who independently submitted a patch that was mostly
      a subset of this one.
