tuptoaster.c --- fields that are compressed in-line are not a reason
to invoke the toaster.  Along the way, add a couple more htup.h macros
to eliminate confusing negated tests, and get rid of the already
vestigial TUPLE_TOASTER_ACTIVE symbol.

run the data through cpp, and we know of at least one platform where
unusual cpp behavior breaks the process.  So remove the cpp step,
and make consequent simplifications.

make sure the $Id tags are converted to $PostgreSQL as well ...

parts.  Standardize spelling of comments in pg_config.h.

instead of 'extern int errno'; the latter is unsafe according to the
ANSI C standard, as well as in practice on some platforms.

width types and varlena types, since with the introduction of CSTRING as
a more-or-less-real type, these concepts aren't identical.  I've tried to
use varlena consistently to denote datatypes with typlen = -1, ie, they
have a length word and are potentially TOASTable; while the term variable
width covers both varlena and cstring (and, perhaps, someday other types
with other rules for computing the actual width).  No code changes in this
commit except for renaming a couple macros.

error handling, and simplifies the code that remains. Apparently,
the code that left Berkeley had a whole "error handling subsystem",
which exceptions and whatnot. Since we don't use that anymore,
there's no reason to keep it around.

The regression tests pass with the patch applied. Unless anyone
sees a problem, please apply.

pg_database, pg_shadow, pg_group, all of which now have potentially-long
fields.  Along the way, get rid of SharedSystemRelationNames list: shared
rels are now identified in their include/pg_catalog/*.h files by a
BKI_SHARED_RELATION macro, while indexes and toast rels inherit sharedness
automatically from their parent table.  Fix some bugs with failure to detoast
pg_group.grolist during ALTER GROUP.

initdb/regression tests pass.

spacing.  Also adds space for one-line comments.

tests pass.

format strings wherever possible.  Remarkably, this exercise didn't
turn up any inconsistencies, but it seems a good idea for the future.

(TransactionIdPrecedes, TransactionIdFollows, etc).  First step on the
way to transaction ID wrap solution ...

default, but OIDS are removed from many system catalogs that don't need them.
Some interesting side effects: TOAST pointers are 20 bytes not 32 now;
pg_description has a three-column key instead of one.

Bugs fixed in passing: BINARY cursors work again; pg_class.relhaspkey
has some usefulness; pg_dump dumps comments on indexes, rules, and
triggers in a valid order.

initdb forced.

pg_database now has unique indexes on oid and on datname.
pg_shadow now has unique indexes on usename and on usesysid.
pg_am now has unique index on oid.
pg_opclass now has unique index on oid.
pg_amproc now has unique index on amid+amopclaid+amprocnum.
Remove pg_rewrite's unnecessary index on oid, delete unused RULEOID syscache.
Remove index on pg_listener and associated syscache for performance reasons
(caching rows that are certain to change before you need 'em again is
rather pointless).
Change pg_attrdef's nonunique index on adrelid into a unique index on
adrelid+adnum.

Fix various incorrect settings of pg_class.relisshared, make that the
primary reference point for whether a relation is shared or not.
IsSharedSystemRelationName() is now only consulted to initialize relisshared
during initial creation of tables and indexes.  In theory we might now
support shared user relations, though it's not clear how one would get
entries for them into pg_class &etc of multiple databases.

Fix recently reported bug that pg_attribute rows created for an index all have
the same OID.  (Proof that non-unique OID doesn't matter unless it's
actually used to do lookups ;-))

There's no need to treat pg_trigger, pg_attrdef, pg_relcheck as bootstrap
relations.  Convert them into plain system catalogs without hardwired
entries in pg_class and friends.

Unify global.bki and template1.bki into a single init script postgres.bki,
since the alleged distinction between them was misleading and pointless.
Not to mention that it didn't work for setting up indexes on shared
system relations.

Rationalize locking of pg_shadow, pg_group, pg_attrdef (no need to use
AccessExclusiveLock where ExclusiveLock or even RowExclusiveLock will do).
Also, hold locks until transaction commit where necessary.

can be compiled with asserts enabled on Windoze.

are now separate files "postgres.h" and "postgres_fe.h", which are meant
to be the primary include files for backend .c files and frontend .c files
respectively.  By default, only include files meant for frontend use are
installed into the installation include directory.  There is a new make
target 'make install-all-headers' that adds the whole content of the
src/include tree to the installed fileset, for use by people who want to
develop server-side code without keeping the complete source tree on hand.
Cleaned up a whole lot of crufty and inconsistent header inclusions.

compressible but not externally storable (since we're not sure about
whether creating a toast relation for pg_class would work).

for details).  It doesn't really do that much yet, since there are no
short-term memory contexts in the executor, but the infrastructure is
in place and long-term contexts are handled reasonably.  A few long-
standing bugs have been fixed, such as 'VACUUM; anything' in a single
query string crashing.  Also, out-of-memory is now considered a
recoverable ERROR, not FATAL.
Eliminate a large amount of crufty, now-dead code in and around
memory management.
Fix problem with holding off SIGTRAP, SIGSEGV, etc in postmaster and
backend startup.

functions that take pass-by-value datatypes.  Should be ready for
port testing ...

"rb" and "wb".

key call sites are changed, but most called functions are still oldstyle.
An exception is that the PL managers are updated (so, for example, NULL
handling now behaves as expected in plperl and plpgsql functions).
NOTE initdb is forced due to added column in pg_proc.

running gcc and HP's cc with warnings cranked way up.  Signed vs unsigned
comparisons, routines declared static and then defined not-static,
that kind of thing.  Tedious, but perhaps useful...

Fewer calls to nameout.

Better use of RelationGetRelationName.

Now indexes of pg_class and pg_type are unique indexes
and guarantee the uniqueness of correponding attributes.
heap_create() was changed to take another boolean parameter
which allows to postpone the creation of disk file.
The name of rd_nonameunlinked was changed to rd_unlinked.
It is used generally(not only for noname relations) now.
Requires initdb.
