0cb91ccba9 Remove the logId/logSeg fields from pg_control, because they are not needed 
in normal operation, and we can avoid rewriting pg_control at every log
segment switch if we don't insist that these values be valid.  Reducing
the number of pg_control updates is a good idea for both performance and
reliability.  It does make pg_resetxlog's life a bit harder, but that seems
a good tradeoff; and anyway the change to pg_resetxlog amounts to automating
something people formerly needed to do by hand, namely look at the existing
pg_xlog files to make sure the new WAL start point was past them.

In passing, change the wording of xlog.c's "database system was interrupted"
messages: describe the pg_control timestamp as "last known up at" rather than
implying it is the exact time of service interruption.  With this change the
timestamp will generally be the time of the last checkpoint, which could be
many minutes before the failure; and we've already seen indications that
people tend to misinterpret the old wording.

initdb forced due to change in pg_control layout.  Simon Riggs and Tom Lane

886a02d1cb Add a txn_start column to pg_stat_activity. This makes it easier to 
identify long-running transactions. Since we already need to record
the transaction-start time (e.g. for now()), we don't need any
additional system calls to report this information.

Catversion bumped, initdb required.

a88ec7b4bb Some more supported-platforms updates: buildfarm hare is alive again,

c184470be3 Document the recently-understood hazard that a rollback can release row-level 
locks that logically should not be released, because when a subtransaction
overwrites XMAX all knowledge of the previous lock state is lost.  It seems
unlikely that we will be able to fix this before 8.3...

da6daee216 Adjust the description of locking to clarify that locks held by a 
subtransaction are released if the subtransaction aborts --- in user-level
terminology, this means either rolling back to a savepoint or escaping from
a plpgsql exception block.  Per recent suggestion from Simon.
