9adaf64da3 Mop-up for HAS_TEST_AND_SET refactoring. Un-break two or three platforms
that were broken, try to make layout of s_lock.h entries consistent,
use HAVE_SPINLOCKS in preference to HAS_TEST_AND_SET everywhere outside
s_lock.h itself.

54c8e821b8 In my mind there were two categories of open issues
a) ones that are 100% backward (such as the comment about
     outputting this format)
and
  b) ones that aren't (such as deprecating the current
     postgresql shorthand of
         '1Y1M'::interval = 1 year 1 minute
     in favor of the ISO-8601
         'P1Y1M'::interval = 1 year 1 month.

Attached is a patch that addressed all the discussed issues that
did not break backward compatability, including the ability to
output ISO-8601 compliant intervals by setting datestyle to
iso8601basic.

Interval values can now be written as  ISO 8601 time intervals, using
the "Format with time-unit designators". This format always starts with
the character 'P', followed  by a string of values followed
by single character time-unit designators. A 'T' separates the date and
time parts of the interval.

005a1217fb Massive overhaul of pg_dump: make use of dependency information from
pg_depend to determine a safe dump order.  Defaults and check constraints
can be emitted either as part of a table or domain definition, or
separately if that's needed to break a dependency loop.  Lots of old
half-baked code for controlling dump order removed.

7ce9b7c0d8 This patch adds a new GUC var, "default_with_oids", which follows the
proposal for eventually deprecating OIDs on user tables that I posted
earlier to pgsql-hackers. pg_dump now always specifies WITH OIDS or
WITHOUT OIDS when dumping a table. The documentation has been updated.

42ce74bf17 COMMENT ON casts, conversions, languages, operator classes, and
large objects.  Dump all these in pg_dump; also add code to pg_dump
user-defined conversions.  Make psql's large object code rely on
the backend for inserting/deleting LOB comments, instead of trying to
hack pg_description directly.  Documentation and regression tests added.

fa5c8a055a Cross-data-type comparisons are now indexable by btrees, pursuant to my
pghackers proposal of 8-Nov.  All the existing cross-type comparison
operators (int2/int4/int8 and float4/float8) have appropriate support.
The original proposal of storing the right-hand-side datatype as part of
the primary key for pg_amop and pg_amproc got modified a bit in the event;
it is easier to store zero as the 'default' case and only store a nonzero
when the operator is actually cross-type.  Along the way, remove the
long-since-defunct bigbox_ops operator class.
