Tom Lane 0777f7a2e8 Fix matching of boolean index columns to sort ordering.
Normally, if we have a WHERE clause like "indexcol = constant",
the planner will figure out that that index column can be ignored
when determining whether the index has a desired sort ordering.
But this failed to work for boolean index columns, because a
condition like "boolcol = true" is canonicalized to just "boolcol"
which does not give rise to an EquivalenceClass.  Add a check to
allow the same type of deduction to be made in this case too.

Per a complaint from Dima Pavlov.  Arguably this is a bug, but given the
limited impact and the small number of complaints so far, I won't risk
destabilizing plans in stable branches by back-patching.

Patch by me, reviewed by Michael Paquier

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
