a new PlannerInfo struct, which is passed around instead of the bare
Query in all the planning code. This commit is essentially just a
code-beautification exercise, but it does open the door to making
larger changes to the planner data structures without having to muck
with the widely-known Query struct.

1. Rename spi_return_next to return_next.
2. Add a new test for return_next.
3. Update the expected output.
4. Update the documentation.

postgresql.conf.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's an updated version of the patch, with the following changes:
1) No longer uses "service name" as "application version". It's instead
hardcoded as "postgres". It could be argued that this part should be
backpatched to 8.0, but it doesn't make a big difference until you can
start changing it with GUC / connection parameters. This change only
affects kerberos 5, not 4.
2) Now downcases kerberos usernames when the client is running on win32.
3) Adds guc option for "krb_caseins_users" to make the server ignore
case mismatch which is required by some KDCs such as Active Directory.
Off by default, per discussion with Tom. This change only affects
kerberos 5, not 4.
4) Updated so it doesn't conflict with the rendevouz/bonjour patch
already in ;-)

and RelationNameGetTupleDesc() as deprecated; remove uses of the
latter in the contrib library. Along the way, clean up crosstab()
code and documentation a little.

from Abhijit Menon-Sen, minor editorialization from Neil Conway. Also,
improve md5(text) to allocate a constant-sized buffer on the stack
rather than via palloc.
Catalog version bumped.
- make sure we always invoke user-supplied GiST methods in a short-lived
memory context. This means the backend isn't exposed to any memory leaks
that be in those methods (in fact, it is probably a net loss for most
GiST methods to bother manually freeing memory now). This also means
we can do away with a lot of ugly manual memory management in the
GiST code itself.
- keep the current page of a GiST index scan pinned, rather than doing a
ReadBuffer() for each tuple produced by the scan. Since ReadBuffer() is
expensive, this is a perf. win
- implement dead tuple killing for GiST indexes (which is easy to do, now
that we keep a pin on the current scan page). Now all the builtin indexes
implement dead tuple killing.
- cleanup a lot of ugly code in GiST

Original patch from Magnus Hagander, code review by Neil Conway. Catalog
version bumped. This patch sends the client IP address and port number in
every statistics message; that's not ideal, but will be fixed up shortly.
