If expand_dbname is non-zero and dbname contains an = sign, it is taken as
a conninfo string in exactly the same way as if it had been passed to
PQconnectdb. This is equivalent to the way PQsetdbLogin() works, allowing
PQconnectdbParams() to be a complete alternative.
Also improve the way the new function is called from psql and replace a
previously missed call to PQsetdbLogin() in psql. Additionally use
PQconnectdbParams() for pg_dump and friends, and the bin/scripts
command line utilities such as vacuumdb, createdb, etc.
Finally, update the documentation for the new parameter, as well as the
nuances of precedence in cases where key words are repeated or duplicated
in the conninfo string.
are using our own ports of getopt or getopt_long, those will define
the variable for themselves; and if not, we don't need these, because
we never touch the variable anyway.
Provides for better code readability, but mainly this is infrastructure changes
to allow further changes such as arbitrary footers on printed tables. Also,
the translation status of each element in the table is more easily customized.

PQconnectionNeedsPassword function that tells the right thing for whether to
prompt for a password, and improve PQconnectionUsedPassword so that it checks
whether the password used by the connection was actually supplied as a
connection argument, instead of coming from environment or a password file.
Per bug report from Mark Cave-Ayland and subsequent discussion.
error message, by using PQconnectionUsedPassword() instead. Someday
we might be able to localize that error message, but not until this
coding technique has disappeared everywhere.
(possibly (un)translated) letters that are actually expected as input.
Also reject invalid responses instead of silenty taken them as "no".

Also performed an initial run through of upgrading our Copyright date to
extend to 2005 ... first run here was very simple ... change everything
where: grep 1996-2004 && the word 'Copyright' ... scanned through the
generated list with 'less' first, and after, to make sure that I only
picked up the right entries ...
* removed a few redundant defines
* get_user_name safe under win32
* rationalized pipe read EOF for win32 (UPDATED PATCH USED)
* changed all backend instances of sleep() to pg_usleep
- except for the SLEEP_ON_ASSERT in assert.c, as it would exceed a
32-bit long [Note to patcher: If a SLEEP_ON_ASSERT of 2000 seconds is
acceptable, please replace with pg_usleep(2000000000L)]
I added a comment to that part of the code:
/*
* It would be nice to use pg_usleep() here, but only does 2000 sec
* or 33 minutes, which seems too short.
*/
sleep(1000000);

o allow configure to see include/port/win32 include files
o add matching Win32 accept() prototype
o allow pg_id to compile with native Win32 API
o fix invalide mbvalidate() function calls (existing bug)
o allow /scripts to compile with native Win32 API
o add win32.c to Win32 compiles (already in *.mak files)
