b8f40ced2f Make PQescapeBytea and byteaout consistent with each other, and
octal escape all octets outside the range 0x20 to 0x7e. This fixes
the problem pointed out by Sergey Yatskevich here:

dd01cfe1c4 Remove possibility to specify an installation root after --with-krbx and
--with-openssl options.  This creates too much risk to pick up the wrong
directory accidentally (for example when there are lib64 directories), and
does not really help much with contemporary installation layouts.

b3d72d3ec5 Use --with-docdir to choose installation location of documentation; put
back --infodir, which several automatic build environments expect to exist.
Add --without-docdir to prevent installation of documentation, which is
helpful for things like RPM that have their own method of installing
documentation.

42ce74bf17 COMMENT ON casts, conversions, languages, operator classes, and
large objects.  Dump all these in pg_dump; also add code to pg_dump
user-defined conversions.  Make psql's large object code rely on
the backend for inserting/deleting LOB comments, instead of trying to
hack pg_description directly.  Documentation and regression tests added.

fa5c8a055a Cross-data-type comparisons are now indexable by btrees, pursuant to my
pghackers proposal of 8-Nov.  All the existing cross-type comparison
operators (int2/int4/int8 and float4/float8) have appropriate support.
The original proposal of storing the right-hand-side datatype as part of
the primary key for pg_amop and pg_amproc got modified a bit in the event;
it is easier to store zero as the 'default' case and only store a nonzero
when the operator is actually cross-type.  Along the way, remove the
long-since-defunct bigbox_ops operator class.

8545482947 When a superuser does GRANT or REVOKE on an object he doesn't own,
process the command as though it were issued by the object owner.
This prevents creating weird scenarios in which the same privileges
may appear to flow from different sources, and ensures that a superuser
can in fact revoke all privileges if he wants to.  In particular this
means that the regression tests work when run by a superuser other than
the original bootstrap userid.  Per report from Larry Rosenman.
