Andres Freund 3717dc149e Add amcheck extension to contrib.
This is the beginning of a collection of SQL-callable functions to
verify the integrity of data files.  For now it only contains code to
verify B-Tree indexes.

This adds two SQL-callable functions, validating B-Tree consistency to
a varying degree.  Check the, extensive, docs for details.

The goal is to later extend the coverage of the module to further
access methods, possibly including the heap.  Once checks for
additional access methods exist, we'll likely add some "dispatch"
functions that cover multiple access methods.

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:

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.  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/.
