1128f55659 Fix postgresql.conf lexer to accept doubled single quotes in literal
strings.  This is consistent with SQL conventions, and since Bruce
already changed initdb in a way that assumed it worked like this, seems
we'd better make it work like this.

e4d9b69779 Rename pg_complete_relation_size() to pg_total_relation_size(), for the
sake of brevity and clarity.

Make pg_reload_conf(), pg_rotate_logfile(), and pg_cancel_backend()
return a boolean rather than an integer to indicate success or failure.

Along the way, make some minor cleanups to dbsize.c -- in particular,
use elog() rather than ereport() for "shouldn't happen" error
conditions, and remove some of the more flagrant violations of the
Postgres indentation conventions.

Catalog version bumped.

3b0453b24f Various documentation improvements. Add a lot of index entries for
the builtin functions (although some more entries are still needed),
and remove the duplicate index entries that have been causing
collateindex.pl warnings. Consistently use "int" and "bigint", rather
than a mix of "int", "integer", "int4", "bigint", and "int8". Make
parenthesis style in syntax examples more consistent. Various
copy-editing for newly-added documentation and SGML markup fixes.
