65e758a4d3 Remove contrib/intarray's definitions of the <@ and @> operators, so that they
don't cause confusion with the built-in anyarray versions of those operators.
Adjust the module's index opclasses to support the built-in operators in place
of the private ones.

The private implementations are still available under their historical
names @ and ~, so no functionality is lost.  Some quick testing suggests
that they offer no real benefit over the core operators, however.

Per a complaint from Rusty Conover.

df13324f08 Add a "relistemp" boolean column to pg_class, which is true for temporary
relations (including a temp table's indexes and toast table/index), and
false for normal relations.  For ease of checking, this commit just adds
the column and fills it correctly --- revising the relation access machinery
to use it will come separately.

87b8db3774 Adjust the APIs for GIN opclass support functions to allow the extractQuery()
method to pass extra data to the consistent() and comparePartial() methods.
This is the core infrastructure needed to support the soon-to-appear
contrib/btree_gin module.  The APIs are still upward compatible with the
definitions used in 8.3 and before, although *not* with the previous 8.4devel
function definitions.

catversion bump for changes in pg_proc entries (although these are just
cosmetic, since GIN doesn't actually look at the function signature before
calling it...)

ff301d6e69 Implement "fastupdate" support for GIN indexes, in which we try to accumulate
multiple index entries in a holding area before adding them to the main index
structure.  This helps because bulk insert is (usually) significantly faster
than retail insert for GIN.

This patch also removes GIN support for amgettuple-style index scans.  The
API defined for amgettuple is difficult to support with fastupdate, and
the previously committed partial-match feature didn't really work with
it either.  We might eventually figure a way to put back amgettuple
support, but it won't happen for 8.4.

catversion bumped because of change in GIN's pg_am entry, and because
the format of GIN indexes changed on-disk (there's a metapage now,
and possibly a pending list).
