Tom Lane	331b2369c0	Fix platform and Perl-version dependencies in new jsonb_plperl code. Testing SvTYPE() directly is more fraught with problems than one might think, because depending on context Perl might be storing a scalar value in one of several forms, eg both numeric and string values. This resulted in Perl-version-dependent buildfarm test failures. Instead use the SvTYPE test only to distinguish non-scalar cases (AV, HV, NULL). Disambiguate scalars by testing SvIOK, SvNOK, then SvPOK. This creates a preference order for how we will resolve cases where the value is available in more than one form, which seems fine to me. Furthermore, because we're now dealing directly with a "double" value in the SvNOK case, we can get rid of an inadequate and unportable string-comparison test for infinities, and use isinf() instead. (We do need some additional #include and "-lm" infrastructure to use that in a contrib module, per prior experiences.) In passing, prevent the regression test results from depending on DROP CASCADE order; I've not seen that malfunction, but it's trouble waiting to happen.

Remove less-portable-than-believed test case.

In commit 331b2369c I added a test to see what jsonb_plperl would do
with a qr{} result.  Turns out the answer is Perl version dependent.
That fact doesn't bother me particularly, but coping with multiple
result possibilities is way more work than this test seems worth.
So remove it again.

Fix platform and Perl-version dependencies in new jsonb_plperl code.

Testing SvTYPE() directly is more fraught with problems than one might
think, because depending on context Perl might be storing a scalar value
in one of several forms, eg both numeric and string values.  This resulted
in Perl-version-dependent buildfarm test failures.  Instead use the SvTYPE
test only to distinguish non-scalar cases (AV, HV, NULL).  Disambiguate
scalars by testing SvIOK, SvNOK, then SvPOK.  This creates a preference
order for how we will resolve cases where the value is available in more
than one form, which seems fine to me.

Furthermore, because we're now dealing directly with a "double" value
in the SvNOK case, we can get rid of an inadequate and unportable
string-comparison test for infinities, and use isinf() instead.
(We do need some additional #include and "-lm" infrastructure to use
that in a contrib module, per prior experiences.)

In passing, prevent the regression test results from depending on DROP
CASCADE order; I've not seen that malfunction, but it's trouble waiting
to happen.

Transforms for jsonb to PL/Perl

Add a new contrib module jsonb_plperl that provides a transform between
jsonb and PL/Perl.  jsonb values are converted to appropriate Perl types
such as arrays and hashes, and vice versa.
