Tom Lane	0426f349ef	Rearrange the handling of error context reports. Remove the code in plpgsql that suppressed the innermost line of CONTEXT for messages emitted by RAISE commands. That was never more than a quick backwards-compatibility hack, and it's pretty silly in cases where the RAISE is nested in several levels of function. What's more, it violated our design theory that verbosity of error reports should be controlled on the client side not the server side. To alleviate the resulting noise increase, introduce a feature in libpq and psql whereby the CONTEXT field of messages can be suppressed, either always or only for non-error messages. Printing CONTEXT for errors only is now their default behavior. The actual code changes here are pretty small, but the effects on the regression test outputs are widespread. I had to edit some of the alternative expected outputs by hand; hopefully the buildfarm will soon find anything I fat-fingered. In passing, fix up (again) the output line counts in psql's various help displays. Add some commentary about how to verify them.

Rearrange the handling of error context reports.

Remove the code in plpgsql that suppressed the innermost line of CONTEXT
for messages emitted by RAISE commands.  That was never more than a quick
backwards-compatibility hack, and it's pretty silly in cases where the
RAISE is nested in several levels of function.  What's more, it violated
our design theory that verbosity of error reports should be controlled
on the client side not the server side.

To alleviate the resulting noise increase, introduce a feature in libpq
and psql whereby the CONTEXT field of messages can be suppressed, either
always or only for non-error messages.  Printing CONTEXT for errors only
is now their default behavior.

The actual code changes here are pretty small, but the effects on the
regression test outputs are widespread.  I had to edit some of the
alternative expected outputs by hand; hopefully the buildfarm will soon
find anything I fat-fingered.

In passing, fix up (again) the output line counts in psql's various
help displays.  Add some commentary about how to verify them.

Add transforms feature

This provides a mechanism for specifying conversions between SQL data
types and procedural languages.  As examples, there are transforms
for hstore and ltree for PL/Perl and PL/Python.
