Fix my oversight in enabling domains-of-domains: ALTER DOMAIN ADD CONSTRAINT
...
needs to check the new constraint against columns of derived domains too.
Also, make it error out if the domain to be modified is used within any
composite-type columns. Eventually we should support that case, but it seems
a bit painful, and not suitable for a back-patch. For the moment just let the
user know we can't do it.
Backpatch to 8.2, which is the only released version that allows nested
domains. Possibly the other part should be back-patched further.

Support explicit placement of the temporary-table schema within search_path.
...
This is needed to allow a security-definer function to set a truly secure
value of search_path. Without it, a malicious user can use temporary objects
to execute code with the privileges of the security-definer function. Even
pushing the temp schema to the back of the search path is not quite good
enough, because a function or operator at the back of the path might still
capture control from one nearer the front due to having a more exact datatype
match. Hence, disable searching the temp schema altogether for functions and
operators.

Arrange to install a "posixrules" entry in our timezone database, so that
...
POSIX-style timezone specs that don't exactly match any database entry will
be treated as having correct USA DST rules. Also, document that this can
be changed if you want to use some other DST rules with a POSIX zone spec.
We could consider changing localtime.c's TZDEFRULESTRING, but since that
facility can only deal with one DST transition rule, it seems fairly useless
now; might as well just plan to override it using a "posixrules" entry.
Backpatch as far as 8.0. There isn't much we can do in 7.x ... either your
libc gets it right, or it doesn't.
