Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments
to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments
following #endif to not obey the general rule.
Commit e3860ffa4d wasn't actually using
the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that
tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of
code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be
moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's
code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops
in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working
in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the
net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed
one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves
more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such
cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after
the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after.
Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same
as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else.
That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage
from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent.
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.

This completes (at least for now) the project of getting rid of ad-hoc
linkages among the src/bin/ subdirectories. Everything they share is now
in src/fe_utils/ and is included from a static library at link time.
A side benefit is that we can restore the FLEX_NO_BACKUP check for
psqlscanslash.l. We might need to think of another way to do that check
if we ever need to build two lexers with that property in the same source
directory, but there's no foreseeable reason to need that.
Remove assorted external references from psqlscan.l in preparation for
making it usable by other frontend programs. This mostly involves
getting rid of direct calls to psql_error() and GetVariable() in favor
of introducing a callback-functions struct to encapsulate variable
fetching and error printing. In addition, pass the current encoding
and standard-strings status as additional parameters to psql_scan_setup
instead of looking directly at "pset" or calling additional functions.
I did not bother to change some references to psql_error that are in
functions that will soon migrate to a psql-specific backslash-command
lexer. Other than that, this version of psqlscan.l is capable of
compiling standalone. It still depends on assorted src/common functions
as well as some encoding-related libpq functions, but we expect that
all programs using it will be happy with those dependencies.

Random .h files have no business including postgres-fe.h (or postgres.h).
If that wasn't the first #include done by the calling .c file, it's the
.c file that's broken. Noted while prepping Kyotaro Horiguchi's psql
lexer refactoring patch.
places --- that risks corrupting data structures, losing sync with the
backend, etc. We now longjmp only from calls to readline, fgets, and
fread, which we assume are coded to protect themselves against interrupts
at undesirable times. This requires adding explicit tests for
cancel_pressed in long-running loops, but on the whole it's far cleaner.

are now separate files "postgres.h" and "postgres_fe.h", which are meant
to be the primary include files for backend .c files and frontend .c files
respectively. By default, only include files meant for frontend use are
installed into the installation include directory. There is a new make
target 'make install-all-headers' that adds the whole content of the
src/include tree to the installed fileset, for use by people who want to
develop server-side code without keeping the complete source tree on hand.
Cleaned up a whole lot of crufty and inconsistent header inclusions.
