3d1588cd3e Make earthdistance use version-0 calling convention if not USE_FLOAT8_BYVAL,
and version-1 if USE_FLOAT8_BYVAL.  This might seem a bit pointless, but the
idea is to have at least one regression test that will fail if we ever
accidentally break version-0 functions that return float8.  However, they're
already broken, or at least hopelessly unportable, in the USE_FLOAT8_BYVAL
case.

Per a recent suggestion from Greg Stark.

dc192a5d8c Convert earthdistance's only C function to v1 call convention,
to future-proof it against pass-by-value float8.

28997903a1 Handle missing M_PI the same way we've been doing in the core code,
instead of inserting an MSVC dependency.

a0ffab351e Magic blocks don't do us any good unless we use 'em ... so install one
in every shared library.

4c1383efd1 The attached patch defines functions for getting distances between
points on the surface of the earth and locating points within a
specified distance using an index based on the contrib/cube package. The
new functions are all of language type sql. A couple of bugs in the old
earthdistance function based on the point datatype are fixed. A
regression test has been added for both sets of functions. The README
file has been updated to include documentation on the new stuff. There
are comments about how this package is also useful for Astronomers.

24bebf0b72 I have included fixes to declare some floating point constants as double
instead of int, change the calculation method to use the haversine
formula
which is more accurrate for short distances, added a grant to public for
geo_distance and added a regression test.

I will resubmit the earth distance stuff based on cube after 7.3 is
released.

d08741eab5 Restructure the key include files per recent pghackers discussion: there
are now separate files "postgres.h" and "postgres_fe.h", which are meant
to be the primary include files for backend .c files and frontend .c files
respectively.  By default, only include files meant for frontend use are
installed into the installation include directory.  There is a new make
target 'make install-all-headers' that adds the whole content of the
src/include tree to the installed fileset, for use by people who want to
develop server-side code without keeping the complete source tree on hand.
Cleaned up a whole lot of crufty and inconsistent header inclusions.
