Tom Lane 0bd7305ffb Make decompilation of optimized CASE constructs more robust.
We had some hacks in ruleutils.c to cope with various odd transformations
that the optimizer could do on a CASE foo WHEN "CaseTestExpr = RHS" clause.
However, the fundamental impossibility of covering all cases was exposed
by Heikki, who pointed out that the "=" operator could get replaced by an
inlined SQL function, which could contain nearly anything at all.  So give
up on the hacks and just print the expression as-is if we fail to recognize
it as "CaseTestExpr = RHS".  (We must cover that case so that decompiled
rules print correctly; but we are not under any obligation to make EXPLAIN
output be 100% valid SQL in all cases, and already could not do so in some
other cases.)  This approach requires that we have some printable
representation of the CaseTestExpr node type; I used "CASE_TEST_EXPR".

Back-patch to all supported branches, since the problem case fails in all.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================
  
This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
