Improve efficiency of LIKE/ILIKE code, especially for multi-byte charsets,

and most especially for UTF8. Remove unnecessary special cases for bytea
processing and single-byte charset ILIKE.  a ILIKE b is now processed as
lower(a) LIKE lower(b) in all cases. The code is now considerably simpler. All
comparisons are now performed byte-wise, and the text and pattern are also
advanced byte-wise where it is safe to do so - essentially where a wildcard is
not being matched.
Andrew Dunstan, from an original patch by ITAGAKI Takahiro, with ideas from
Tom Lane and Mark Mielke.
