This enables sortsupport in the btree_gist extension for faster builds
of gist indexes.
Sorted gist index build strategy is the new default now. Regression
tests are unchanged (except for one small change in the 'enum' test to
add coverage for enum values added later) and are using the sorted
build strategy instead.
One version of this was committed a long time ago already, in commit
9f984ba6d2, but it was quickly reverted because of buildfarm
failures. The failures were presumably caused by some small bugs, but
we never got around to debug and commit it again. This patch was
written from scratch, implementing the same idea, with some fragments
and ideas from the original patch.

A few of these were copy-pasted wrong, like the comment "Bytea ops" in
btree_numeric.c. Instead of fixing the incorrect ones, replace them
all with generic comment "GiST support functions".
Also tidy up the inconsistent newlines between various functions while
we're at it.
The current code could do unnecessary calls to isinf() (two for the
argument values all the time while one could be sufficient in some
cases). zero_is_valid was never used but the result value was still
checked on 0 in the first position of the check.
This is similar to 607f8ce. btree_gist has just copy-pasted the code
doing those checks from the backend float4/8 code, as of the macro
CHECKFLOATVAL(), to do the work.

This reverts commit 9f984ba6d2.
It was making the buildfarm unhappy, apparently setting client_min_messages
in a regression test produces different output if log_statement='all'.
Another issue is that I now suspect the bit sortsupport function was in
fact not correct to call byteacmp(). Revert to investigate both of those
issues.
We used to strategically place newlines after some function call left
parentheses to make pgindent move the argument list a few chars to the
left, so that the whole line would fit under 80 chars. However,
pgindent no longer does that, so the newlines just made the code
vertically longer for no reason. Remove those newlines, and reflow some
of those lines for some extra naturality.

Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they
flow past the right margin.
By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are
within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding
left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the
continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin,
then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin,
if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of
the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations
unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column
limit.
This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers.
Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized
lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren.
This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent
changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

None of the existing types actually need to use this mechanism, but this
will allow support for enum types which will need it. A separate patch
will adjust the varlena types support for consistency.

inet, cidr, and timetz indexes still cannot support index-only scans,
because they don't store the original unmodified value in the index, but a
derived approximate value.
The gbt_var_key_copy function was doing two different things depending on
the boolean argument. Seems cleaner to have two separate functions.
Remove unused argument from gbt_num_compress.
The macaddr opclass stores two macaddr structs (each of size 6) in an
index column that's declared as being of type gbtreekey16, ie 16 bytes.
In the original coding this led to passing a palloc'd value of size 12
to the index insertion code, so that data would be fetched past the
end of the allocated value during index tuple construction. This makes
valgrind unhappy. In principle it could result in a SIGSEGV, though
with the current implementation of palloc there's no risk since
the 12-byte request size would be rounded up to 16 bytes anyway.
To fix, add a field to struct gbtree_ninfo showing the declared size of
the index datums, and use that in the palloc requests; and use palloc0
to be sure that any wasted bytes are cleanly initialized.
Per report from Andres Freund. No back-patch since there's no current
risk of a real problem.
Because of gcc -Wmissing-prototypes, all functions in dynamically
loadable modules must have a separate prototype declaration. This is
meant to detect global functions that are not declared in header files,
but in cases where the function is called via dfmgr, this is redundant.
Besides filling up space with boilerplate, this is a frequent source of
compiler warnings in extension modules.
We can fix that by creating the function prototype as part of the
PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1 macro, which such modules have to use anyway. That
makes the code of modules cleaner, because there is one less place where
the entry points have to be listed, and creates an additional check that
functions have the right prototype.
Remove now redundant prototypes from contrib and other modules.
This addresses only those cases that are easy to fix by adding or
moving a const qualifier or removing an unnecessary cast. There are
many more complicated cases remaining.
"consistent" functions, and remove pg_amop.opreqcheck, as per recent
discussion. The main immediate benefit of this is that we no longer need
8.3's ugly hack of requiring @@@ rather than @@ to test weight-using tsquery
searches on GIN indexes. In future it should be possible to optimize some
other queries better than is done now, by detecting at runtime whether the
index match is exact or not.
Tom Lane, after an idea of Heikki's, and with some help from Teodor.
- Fix wrong index results on text, char, varchar for multibyte strings
- Fix some SIGFPE signals
- Add support for infinite timestamps
- Because of locale settings, btree_gist can not be a prefix index anymore (for text).
Each node holds now just the lower and upper boundary.
