This changes the data type of the catalog fields datcollate, datctype, collcollate, and collctype from name to text. There wasn't ever a really good reason for them to be of type name; presumably this was just carried over from when they were fixed-size fields in pg_control, first into the corresponding pg_database fields, and then to pg_collation. The values are not identifiers or object names, and we don't ever look them up that way. Changing to type text saves space in the typical case, since locale names are typically only a few bytes long. But it is also possible that an ICU locale name with several customization options appended could be longer than 63 bytes, so this also enables that case, which was previously probably broken.

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: https://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. 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 https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
