82849df6c6 Add new selectivity estimation functions for pattern-matching operators 
(LIKE and regexp matches).  These are not yet referenced in pg_operator,
so by default the system will continue to use eqsel/neqsel.
Also, tweak convert_to_scalar() logic so that common prefixes of strings
are stripped off, allowing better accuracy when all strings in a table
share a common prefix.

0edcee3459 Fold PQsetenv working state into PGconn, rather than trying to maintain 
it in a separate object.  There's no value in keeping the state separate,
and it creates dangling-pointer problems.  Also, remove PQsetenv routines
from public API, until and unless they are redesigned to have a safer
interface.  Since they were never part of the documented API before 7.0,
it's unlikely that anyone is calling them.

f945f46193 Modify lexing of multi-char operators per pghackers discussion around 
16-Mar-00: trailing + or - is not part of the operator unless the operator
also contains characters not present in SQL92-defined operators.  This
solves the 'X=-Y' problem without unduly constraining users' choice of
operator names --- in particular, no existing Postgres operator names
become invalid.

Also, remove processing of // comments, as agreed in the same thread.

0e314d747e Add safety check on expression nesting depth. Default value is set by 
a config.h #define, and the runtime value can be controlled via SET.

1763a7c1ea Tweak GROUP BY so that it will still accept result-column names, but only 
after trying to resolve the item as an input-column name.  This allows us
to be compliant with the SQL92 spec for queries that fall within the spec,
while still accepting the same out-of-spec queries as 6.5 did.  You'll only
lose if there is an output column name that is the same as an input
column name, but doesn't refer to the same value.  7.0 will interpret
such a GROUP BY spec differently than 6.5 did.  No way around that, because
6.5 was clearly not spec compliant.
