* Merge xmin/xmax/cmin/cmax back into three header fields
Before subtransactions, there used to be only three fields needed to
store these four values. This was possible because only the current
transaction looks at the cmin/cmax values. If the current transaction
created and expired the row the fields stored where xmin (same as
xmax), cmin, cmax, and if the transaction was expiring a row from a
another transaction, the fields stored were xmin (cmin was not
needed), xmax, and cmax. Such a system worked because a transaction
could only see committed rows from another transaction. However,
subtransactions can see rows from outer transactions, and once the
subtransaction completes, the outer transaction continues, requiring
the storage of all four fields. With subtransactions, an outer
transaction can create a row, a subtransaction expire it, and when the
subtransaction completes, the outer transaction still has to have
proper visibility of the row, for example, for cursors.
One possible solution is to create a phantom cid which represents a
cmin/cmax pair and is stored in local memory.

saves nearly 700kB in the default shared memory segment size, which seems
worthwhile, and it is a feature that many users won't use anyway. Per
Heikki's argument, there is no point in a compromise value --- those who
are using 2PC at all will probably want it at least equal to max_connections.
But we can't set it to zero by default without breaking the prepared_xacts
regression test.

This was not especially critical before, but it is now that we track
ownership dependencies --- the dependency for the rowtype *must* shift
to the new owner. Spotted by Bernd Helmle.
Also fix a problem introduced by recent change to allow non-superusers
to do ALTER OWNER in some cases: if the table had a toast table, ALTER
OWNER failed *even for superusers*, because the test being applied would
conclude that the new would-be owner had no create rights on pg_toast.
A side-effect of the fix is to disallow changing the ownership of indexes
or toast tables separately from their parent table, which seems a good
idea on the whole.

for such a role, membership in another role can be exploited only by doing
explicit SET ROLE. The default inherit setting is TRUE, so by default
the behavior doesn't change, but creating a user with NOINHERIT gives closer
adherence to our current reading of SQL99. Documentation still lacking,
and I think the information schema needs another look.

optional arguments as text input functions, ie, typioparam OID and
atttypmod. Make all the datatypes that use typmod enforce it the same

The Problem: Occassionally a DBA needs to dump a database to a new
encoding. In instances where the current encoding, (or lack of an
encoding, like SQL_ASCII) is poorly supported on the target database
server, it can be useful to dump into a particular encoding. But,
currently the only way to set the encoding of a pg_dump file is to
change client_encoding in postgresql.conf and restart postmaster.
This is more than a little awkward for production systems.

The specification of this function is as follows.
regexp_replace(source text, pattern text, replacement text, [flags
text])
returns text
Replace string that matches to regular expression in source text to
replacement text.
- pattern is regular expression pattern.
- replacement is replace string that can use '\1'-'\9', and '\&'.
'\1'-'\9': back reference to the n'th subexpression.
'\&' : entire matched string.
- flags can use the following values:
g: global (replace all)
i: ignore case
When the flags is not specified, case sensitive, replace the first
instance only.
