Bruce Momjian 3ceda5eab3 I just noticed that \dp outputs "Table" to indicate relations (tables,
sequences and views).  This patch allows it to handle views and
sequences.

Neil Conway bfd6f52b0e Allow 'Infinity' and '-Infinity' as input to the float4 and float8
types. Update the regression tests and the documentation to reflect
this. Remove the UNSAFE_FLOATS #ifdef.

This is only half the story: we still unconditionally reject
floating point operations that result in +/- infinity. See
recent thread on -hackers for more information.

Bruce Momjian 1973971821 Per a brief conversation with Tom, I've created a patch for adding
support for 'week' within the date_trunc function.

Within the patch I added a couple of test cases and associated target
output, and changed the documentation to add 'week' appropriately.

Neil Conway 2146bfc869 Emit a warning when an empty string is input to the oid, float4, and
float8 types. This begins the deprecation of this feature: in 7.6,
this input will be rejected.

Also added a new error code for warnings about deprecated features,
and updated the regression tests.
