match the convention that foo's uninstall script is uninstall_foo.sql.
Also, stop installing lo_test.sql, which really ought to be made into
a regression test anyway (though it's unclear how to avoid a dependency
on the current OID counter...)

an earlier discussion. Centralize assumptions about what libpq depends
on in one place in Makefile.global. I am unconvinced that this list
is complete, but since ecpg seems to have gotten along with just these
entries, we'll try it this way and see what happens.
we probably should make them work reliably for all arrays. Fix code
to handle NULLs and multidimensional arrays, move it into arrayfuncs.c.
GIN is still restricted to indexing arrays with no null elements, however.
agreed these symbols are less easily confused. I made new pg_operator
entries (with new OIDs) for the old names, so as to provide backward
compatibility while making it pretty easy to remove the old names in
some future release cycle. This commit only touches the core datatypes,
contrib will be fixed separately.
remove the old isbn_issn module which is about to be obsoleted by EAN13.
contrib/isn is by Germán Méndez Bravo. Our thanks to Garrett A. Wollman
for having written the original isbn_issn module.
to a relation on the nullable side of an outer join. I had removed
this during the outer join planning rewrite a few months ago ... I think
I intended to put it somewhere else, but forgot ...
than being equivalent to setting log_min_duration_statement to zero, this
option now forces logging of all query durations, but doesn't force logging
of query text. Also, add duration logging coverage for fastpath function
calls.
