77c168a836 Remove grammar productions for prefix and postfix % and ^ operators,
as well as the existing pg_catalog entries for prefix and postfix %.
These have never been documented, though they did appear in one old
regression test.  This avoids surprising behavior in cases like
"SELECT -25 % -10".  Per recent discussion.
Note: although there is a catalog change here, I did not force initdb
since there's no harm in leaving the inaccessible entries in one's
copy of pg_operator.

f5ab0a14ea Add a "USING" clause to DELETE, which is equivalent to the FROM clause
in UPDATE. We also now issue a NOTICE if a query has _any_ implicit
range table entries -- in the past, we would only warn about implicit
RTEs in SELECTs with at least one explicit RTE.

As a result of the warning change, 25 of the regression tests had to
be updated. I also took the opportunity to remove some bogus whitespace
differences between some of the float4 and float8 variants. I believe
I have correctly updated all the platform-specific variants, but let
me know if that's not the case.

Original patch for DELETE ... USING from Euler Taveira de Oliveira,
reworked by Neil Conway.

975e27377a Adjust input routines for float4, float8 and oid to reject the empty string
as valid input (it was previously treated as 0). This input was deprecated
in 8.0 (and a warning was emitted). Regression tests updated.

fc7fd50182 Add ceiling() as an alias for ceil(), and power() as an alias for pow().
Regression tests and documentation have both been updated.

SQL2003 requires that both ceiling() and ceil() be present, so I have
documented both spellings. SQL2003 doesn't mention pow() as far as I
can see, so I decided to replace pow() with power() in the documentation:
there is little reason to encourage the continued usage of a function
that isn't compliant with the standard, given a standard-compliant
alternative.

RELEASE NOTES: should state that pow() is considered deprecated
(although I don't see the need to ever remove it.)

533d0915cf Update the float8 regression tests: they should now pass on FreeBSD 4.x
and (in theory) QNX. Thanks to Chris KL for the report.

f744c0f760 float8-small-is-zero and float8-exp-three-digits will likely need
similar changes.
