The Value node struct is a weird construct. It is its own node type, but most of the time, it actually has a node type of Integer, Float, String, or BitString. As a consequence, the struct name and the node type don't match most of the time, and so it has to be treated specially a lot. There doesn't seem to be any value in the special construct. There is very little code that wants to accept all Value variants but nothing else (and even if it did, this doesn't provide any convenient way to check it), and most code wants either just one particular node type (usually String), or it accepts a broader set of node types besides just Value. This change removes the Value struct and node type and replaces them by separate Integer, Float, String, and BitString node types that are proper node types and structs of their own and behave mostly like normal node types. Also, this removes the T_Null node tag, which was previously also a possible variant of Value but wasn't actually used outside of the Value contained in A_Const. Replace that by an isnull field in A_Const.

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.
