0655b26282 log_destination should only be PGC_SIGHUP, not PGC_POSTMASTER, as per
discussion yesterday.  Also a few improvements in the associated
documentation.

2042b3428d Invent WAL timelines, as per recent discussion, to make point-in-time
recovery more manageable.  Also, undo recent change to add FILE_HEADER
and WASTED_SPACE records to XLOG; instead make the XLOG page header
variable-size with extra fields in the first page of an XLOG file.
This should fix the boundary-case bugs observed by Mark Kirkwood.
initdb forced due to change of XLOG representation.

45995219a0 Here is another patch that fixes a stack of pg_dump bugs:
* Fix help text ordering

* Add back --set-session-authorization to pg_dumpall.  Updated the docs
for that.  Updated help for that.

* Dump ALTER USER commands for the cluster owner ("pgsql").  These are
dumped AFTER the create user and create database commands in case the
permissions to do these have been revoked.

* Dump ALTER OWNER for public schema (because it's possible to change
it).  This was done by adding TOC entries for the public schema, and
filtering them out at archiver time.  I also save the owner in the TOC
entry just for the public schema.

* Suppress dumping single quotes around schema_path and DateStyle
options when they are set using ALTER USER or ALTER DATABASE.  Added a
comment to the steps in guc.c to remind people to update that list.

* Fix dumping in --clean mode against a pre-7.3 server.  It just sets
all drop statements to assume the public schema, allowing it to restore
without error.

* Cleaned up text output.  eg. Don't output -- Tablespaces comment if
there are none.  Same for groups and users.

* Make the commands to DELETE FROM pg_shadow and DELETE FROM pg_group
only be output when -c mode is enabled.  I'm not sure why that hasn't
been done before?!?!

This should be good for application asap, after which I will start on
regression dumping 7.0-7.4 databases.

dc0e76ca36 Change pg_dump to use ALTER OWNER commands instead of SET SESSION
AUTHORIZATION commands by default.  Move all GRANT and REVOKE commands
to the end of the dump to avoid restore failures in several situations.
Bring back --use-set-session-authorization option to get previous SET
behaviour

c14a43f657 Remove TABLESPACE option of CREATE SEQUENCE; sequences will now always
live in database or schema's default tablespace, as per today's discussion.
Also, remove some unused keywords from the grammar (PATH, PENDANT,
VERSION), and fix ALSO, which was added as a keyword but not added
to the keyword classification lists, thus making it worse-than-reserved.
