specific hash functions used by hash indexes, rather than the old
not-datatype-aware ComputeHashFunc routine. This makes it safe to do
hash joining on several datatypes that previously couldn't use hashing.
The sets of datatypes that are hash indexable and hash joinable are now
exactly the same, whereas before each had some that weren't in the other.

the same high level of abstraction.

to put spaces around parameter references, as in "x<=$2". The second
change improves compatibility with Oracle and some other RDBMSes. This
was discussed and agreed to back in January, but did not get done.
not all SQL identifiers taken from command line arguments. We decided
years ago that that was a bad idea: identifiers taken from the command
line should be treated as literally correct. Remove the inconsistent
code that has crept in recently. Also fix pg_dump so that the combination
of --schema and --table does what you'd expect, namely dump exactly one
table from exactly one schema. Per gripe from Deepak Bhole of Red Hat.
extensions to support our historical behavior. An aggregate belongs
to the closest query level of any of the variables in its argument,
or the current query level if there are no variables (e.g., COUNT(*)).
The implementation involves adding an agglevelsup field to Aggref,
and treating outer aggregates like outer variables at planning time.
