Bruce Momjian c880f9aeb2 Update SQL-standard INTERVAL item:
o Support ISO INTERVAL syntax if units cannot be determined from
          the string, and are supplied after the string

          The SQL standard states that the units after the string specify
          the units of the string, e.g. INTERVAL '2' MINUTE should
          return '00:02:00'.  The current behavior has the units
          restrict the interval value to the specified unit or unit range,
          INTERVAL '70' SECOND returns '00:00:10'.

          For syntax that isn't uniquely ISO or PG syntax, like '1' or
          '1:30', treat as ISO if there is a range specification clause,
          and as PG if there no clause is present, e.g. interpret
          '1:30' MINUTE TO SECOND as '1 minute 30 seconds', and
          interpret '1:30' as '1 hour, 30 minutes'.

          This makes common cases like SELECT INTERVAL '1' MONTH
          SQL-standard results.  The SQL standard supports a limited
          number of unit combinations and doesn't support unit names
          in the string.  The PostgreSQL syntax is more flexible in
          the range of units supported, e.g. PostgreSQL supports
          '1 year 1 hour', while the SQL standard does not.

Bruce Momjian 24e1a04591 Split out MERGE and REPLACE/UPSERT items.
< * Add MERGE command that does UPDATE/DELETE, or on failure, INSERT (rules,
<   triggers?)
> * Add SQL-standard MERGE command, typically used to merge two tables
>
>   This is similar to UPDATE, then for unmatched rows, INSERT.
>   Whether concurrent access allows modifications which could cause
>   row loss is implementation independent.

> * Add REPLACE or UPSERT command that does UPDATE, or on failure, INSERT

Bruce Momjian 01798a06b9 Add batch mode, make new libpq section:
< * Add a libpq function to support Parse/DescribeStatement capability
< * Add PQescapeIdentifier() to libpq
< * Prevent PQfnumber() from lowercasing unquoted the column name
<
<   PQfnumber() should never have been doing lowercasing, but historically
<   it has so we need a way to prevent it

> 	  Currently, subtracting one date from another that crosses a

> 	  adding that back to the first date returns a time one hour in

> 	  '1 day 1 hour', and '1 day' is the same time the next day, even
> 	  if daylight savings adjustments are involved.
