8dbd10d96d This patch fixes a small error in the Porting PL/SQL to PL/pgSQL
section where a instr function parameter is mistyped as varchar. It
works properly when changed to integer.

8801110b20 Move TablespaceCreateDbspace() call into smgrcreate(), which is where it
probably should have been to begin with; this is to cover cases like
needing to recreate the per-db directory during WAL replay.
Also, fix heap_create to force pg_class.reltablespace to be zero instead
of the database's default tablespace; this makes the world safe for
CREATE DATABASE to handle all tables in the default tablespace alike,
as per previous discussion.  And force pg_class.reltablespace to zero
when creating a relation without physical storage (eg, a view); this
avoids possibly having dangling references in this column after a
subsequent DROP TABLESPACE.

94d4d240bb Rename XLOG_BTREE_NEWPAGE xlog record type into XLOG_HEAP_NEWPAGE, and
shift support code into heapam.c accordingly.  This is in service of
soon-to-be-committed ALTER TABLE SET TABLESPACE code that will want to
use this same record type for both heaps and indexes.

Theoretically I should have forced initdb for this, but in practice there
is no change in xlog contents because CVS tip will never really emit this
record type anyhow...

c8c40bbc9e Cause the format of BC timestamptz output to be 'datetime zone BC' rather
than 'datetime BC zone', because the former is accepted by the timestamptz
input converter while the latter may not be depending on spacing.  This
is not a loss of compatibility w.r.t. 7.4 and before, because until very
recently there was never a case where we'd output both zone and 'BC'.

5dfd5063e2 Defend against overrun of ExtraOptions array --- strictly paranoia,
since the person or script starting the postmaster has to be trusted
anyway.

99b225c528 Check more test points (in fact, every week in 1970..2004) to get a more
accurate matching of our time zone to the system's zone.  This method is
able to distinguish Antarctica/Casey from Australia/Perth, as in Chris
K-L's recent example; and it is not materially slower than before, because
the extra checks generally don't get done against very many time zones.

It seems possible that with this test we'd be able to correctly identify
Windows timezones without looking at the timezone name, but I do not
have the ability to try it.

b9f698eccb Fix BSD-only coding in port.c (passing a local variable to putenv).
Also a quick but half-baked attempt to make trim_trailing_separator
do the right thing with path consisting only of '/' --- still needs
work for Windows I think.

82f755ec80 Test HAVING condition before computing targetlist of an Aggregate node.
This is required by SQL spec to avoid failures in cases like
  SELECT sum(win)/sum(lose) FROM ... GROUP BY ... HAVING sum(lose) > 0;
AFAICT we have gotten this wrong since day one.  Kudos to Holger Jakobs
for being the first to notice.
