By project convention, these names should include "P" when dealing with a
pointer type; that is, if the result of a GETARG macro is of type FOO *,
it should be called PG_GETARG_FOO_P not just PG_GETARG_FOO. Some newer
types such as JSONB and ranges had not followed the convention, and a
number of contrib modules hadn't gotten that memo either. Rename the
offending macros to improve consistency.
In passing, fix a few places that thought PG_DETOAST_DATUM() returns
a Datum; it does not, it returns "struct varlena *". Applying
DatumGetPointer to that happens not to cause any bad effects today,
but it's formally wrong. Also, adjust an ltree macro that was designed
without any thought for what pgindent would do with it.
This is all cosmetic and shouldn't have any impact on generated code.

Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they
flow past the right margin.
By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are
within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding
left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the
continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin,
then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin,
if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of
the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations
unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column
limit.
This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers.
Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized
lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren.
This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent
changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

Backpatch: 9.1-
Because of gcc -Wmissing-prototypes, all functions in dynamically
loadable modules must have a separate prototype declaration. This is
meant to detect global functions that are not declared in header files,
but in cases where the function is called via dfmgr, this is redundant.
Besides filling up space with boilerplate, this is a frequent source of
compiler warnings in extension modules.
We can fix that by creating the function prototype as part of the
PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1 macro, which such modules have to use anyway. That
makes the code of modules cleaner, because there is one less place where
the entry points have to be listed, and creates an additional check that
functions have the right prototype.
Remove now redundant prototypes from contrib and other modules.
This applies the fix for bug #5784 to remaining places where we wish
to reject nulls in user-supplied arrays. In all these places, there's
no reason not to allow a null bitmap to be present, so long as none of
the current elements are actually null.
I did not change some other places where we are looking at system catalog
entries or aggregate transition values, as the presence of a null bitmap
in such an array would be suspicious.
The main motivation for changing this is bug #4921, in which it's pointed out
that it's no longer safe to apply ltree operations to the result of
ARRAY(SELECT ...) if the sub-select might return no rows. Before 8.3,
the ARRAY() construct would return NULL, which might or might not be helpful
but at least it wouldn't result in an error. Now it returns an empty array
which results in a failure for no good reason, since the ltree operations
are all perfectly capable of dealing with zero-element arrays.
As far as I can find, these ltree functions are the only places where zero
array dimensionality is rejected unnecessarily.
Back-patch to 8.3 to prevent behavioral regression of queries that worked
in older releases.
unnecessary #include lines in it. Also, move some tuple routine prototypes and
macros to htup.h, which allows removal of heapam.h inclusion from some .c
files.
For this to work, a new header file access/sysattr.h needed to be created,
initially containing attribute numbers of system columns, for pg_dump usage.
While at it, make contrib ltree, intarray and hstore header files more
consistent with our header style.
ways. I'm not totally sure that I caught everything, but at least now they pass
their regression tests with VARSIZE/SET_VARSIZE defined to reverse byte order.
