modules are built. Foremost, it creates a solid distinction between these two
types of targets based on what had already been implemented and duplicated in
ad hoc ways before. Specifically,
- Dynamically loadable modules no longer get a soname. The numbers previously
set in the makefiles were dummy numbers anyway, and the presence of a soname
upset a few packaging tools, so it is nicer not to have one.
- The cumbersome detour taken on installation (build a libfoo.so.0.0.0 and
then override the rule to install foo.so instead) is removed.
- Lots of duplicated code simplified.
errors in any commands, including in various clean targets that have so far
been handled inconsistently. make -i is available to ignore all errors in
a consistent and official way.
per recommendation from Alvaro. This doesn't force initdb since the
numeric token type in the catalogs doesn't change; but note that
the expected regression test output changed.
categories, as per discussion. asciiword (formerly lword) is still
ASCII-letters-only, and numword (formerly word) is still the most general
mixed-alpha-and-digits case. But word (formerly nlword) is now
any-group-of-letters-with-at-least-one-non-ASCII, rather than all-non-ASCII as
before. This is no worse than before for parsing mixed Russian/English text,
which seems to have been the design center for the original coding; and it
should simplify matters for parsing most European languages. In particular
it will not be necessary for any language to accept strings containing digits
as being regular "words". The hyphenated-word categories are adjusted
similarly.
initcap style --- the vast majority of the existing descriptions do not use
an initial cap. I didn't change places where the first word was all-cap.
initdb not forced because this doesn't change any regression test results.
- ispell initialization crashed on empty dictionary file
- ispell initialization crashed on affix file with prefixes but no suffixes
- stop words file was run through pg_verify_mbstr, with database
encoding, but it's supposed to be UTF-8; similar bug for synonym files
- bunch of comments added, typos fixed, and other cleanup
Introduced consistent encoding checking/conversion of data read from tsearch
configuration files, by doing this in a single t_readline() subroutine
(replacing direct usages of fgets). Cleaned up API for readstopwords too.

init options of the template as top-level options in the syntax. This also
makes ALTER a bit easier to use, since options can be replaced individually.
I also made these statements verify that the tmplinit method will accept
the new settings before they get stored; in the original coding you didn't
find out about mistakes until the dictionary got invoked.
Under the hood, init methods now get options as a List of DefElem instead
of a raw text string --- that lets tsearch use existing options-pushing code
instead of duplicating functionality.
Oleg Bartunov and Teodor Sigaev, but I did a lot of editorializing,
so anything that's broken is probably my fault.
Documentation is nonexistent as yet, but let's land the patch so we can
get some portability testing done.
