locale is C.
Backpatch to 8.0.X because some operating systems were throwing errors
for such operations, rather than ignoring the locale when it was C.

a tuple are being accessed via ExecEvalVar and the attcacheoff shortcut
isn't usable (due to nulls and/or varlena columns). To do this, cache
Datums extracted from a tuple in the associated TupleTableSlot.
Also some code cleanup in and around the TupleTable handling.

whether or not it is a security definer. Changing a function's strictness
is required by SQL2003, and the other capabilities make sense. Also, allow
an optional RESTRICT noise word to be specified, for SQL conformance.
Some trivial regression tests added and the documentation has been
updated.
database's datallowconn and datfrozenxid to the current transaction ID
instead of copying the source database's values. This is OK because we
assume the source DB contains no normal transaction IDs whatsoever.
This keeps VACUUM from immediately starting to complain about unvacuumed
databases in the situation where we are more than 2 billion transactions
out from the XID stamp of template0. Per discussion with Milen Radev
(although his complaint turned out to be due to something else, but the
problem is real anyway).
can tell whether it is being used as an aggregate or not. This allows
such a function to avoid re-pallocing a pass-by-reference transition
value; normally it would be unsafe for a function to scribble on an input,
but in the aggregate case it's safe to reuse the old transition value.
Make int8inc() do this. This gets a useful improvement in the speed of
COUNT(*), at least on narrow tables (it seems to be swamped by I/O when
the table rows are wide). Per a discussion in early December with
Neil Conway. I also fixed int_aggregate.c to check this, thereby
turning it into something approaching a supportable technique instead
of being a crude hack.
