8545482947 When a superuser does GRANT or REVOKE on an object he doesn't own,
process the command as though it were issued by the object owner.
This prevents creating weird scenarios in which the same privileges
may appear to flow from different sources, and ensures that a superuser
can in fact revoke all privileges if he wants to.  In particular this
means that the regression tests work when run by a superuser other than
the original bootstrap userid.  Per report from Larry Rosenman.

bcf4d35699 Minor cleanup of PQunescapeBytea(). Avoid unportable assumptions about
behavior of malloc and realloc when request size is 0.  Fix escape
sequence recognizer so that only valid 3-digit octal sequences are
treated as escape sequences ... isdigit() is not a correct test.

774f57038a Moved the recently added test for foreign key disabled by rewrite
rule into the rule.sql since it affects the latter if run in paralell.

cc4baf4da3 Fix for possible referential integrity violation when a qualified ON INSERT
rule split the query into one INSERT and one UPDATE where the UPDATE
then hit's the just created row without modifying the key fields again.
In this special case, the new key slipped in totally unchecked.

e181001764 Small fix to Christopher's recent improvements --- underscore is not
a special character in regexes, but it is for LIKE, so NOT LIKE 'pg_%'
is incorrect.  Need NOT LIKE 'pg\_%'.

ede9b68e03 Use Tcl ByteArray objects to avoid unwanted character set translation
in libpgtcl's lo_read/lo_write commands.  Also, deal correctly with
failure return from lo_read().  ljb and Tom Lane.

e84487f67a Further work on tab completion code: arrange for system catalogs to be
offered for completion only when the input-so-far is at least 'pg_'.
This seems to be the best compromise behavior emerging from yesterday's
discussion.  While at it, refactor code to eliminate repetitive use of
nearly identical queries, which was exceedingly tedious to maintain.
Also const-ify code more thoroughly in hopes of moving constant data into
text segment, and remove unnecessary length limit on queries.

f016c92ea4 Fix some corner cases in ACL manipulation: don't foul up on an empty
ACL array, and force languages to be treated as owned by the bootstrap
user ID.  (pg_language should have a lanowner column, but until it does
this will have to do as a workaround.)

15c6764bda Don't include "schema." in the set of possible tab completions once
"schema." has been typed.  This allows readline to complete subsequent
characters immediately if all relations in the target schema start with
the same prefix.  This actually worked before, but I unintentionally
broke it a few days ago.
Also, make completion schema-aware for GRANT, REVOKE, VACUUM.
