f905d65ee3 Rewrite of planner statistics-gathering code. ANALYZE is now available as
a separate statement (though it can still be invoked as part of VACUUM, too).
pg_statistic redesigned to be more flexible about what statistics are
stored.  ANALYZE now collects a list of several of the most common values,
not just one, plus a histogram (not just the min and max values).  Random
sampling is used to make the process reasonably fast even on very large
tables.  The number of values and histogram bins collected is now
user-settable via an ALTER TABLE command.

There is more still to do; the new stats are not being used everywhere
they could be in the planner.  But the remaining changes for this project
should be localized, and the behavior is already better than before.

A not-very-related change is that sorting now makes use of btree comparison
routines if it can find one, rather than invoking '<' twice.

0cec2bb0cd BTW it does not add encodign it just patches existing one (KOI8) to
support two - KOI8-R and KOI8-U (latter is superset of the former if
not to take to the account pseudographics)

aggregate 'agg' for 'type' does not exist.

Mismatch with synopsis, agg must be name here.

82511e3375 In create_function there is a remark concerning SQL/PSM not
being ratified as yet. This is certainly no longer true, it wasn't
even true in Q2/1998 when I did a little research for Date's book.
SQL/PSM had been published on 1996-12-15 as ISO/IEC 9075:4. So you
might want to update that section.

e6767a3205 Final markup for 7.1 hardcopy release. Mostly typo and table-fitting
adjustments. Note that many tables are being abused with *really* long
 description columns. Should probably shrink those columns to be more
 concise, and move some of the info to follow-on reference notes.

072174f941 Add option --refentry to change \keepn (keep with next paragraph) to
\keep (keep current paragraph together). This fixes most troubles with
 reference pages marked up with <refentry> tags.
Use on reference.rtf, generated by "make reference.rtf".
