Peter Geoghegan ae7291acbc Standardize ItemIdData terminology.
The term "item pointer" should not be used to refer to ItemIdData
variables, since that is needlessly ambiguous.  Only
ItemPointerData/ItemPointer variables should be called item pointers.

To fix, establish the convention that ItemIdData variables should always
be referred to either as "item identifiers" or "line pointers".  The
term "item identifier" already predominates in docs and translatable
messages, and so should be the preferred alternative there.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------

This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree.  This does not preclude their
usefulness.

User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.

When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target.  You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.

Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types.  To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command.  In a fresh database,
you can simply do

    CREATE EXTENSION module_name;

See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
