Peter Eisentraut 0873b2d354 libpq error message refactoring
libpq now contains a mix of error message strings that end with
newlines and don't end with newlines, due to some newer code paths
with new ways of passing errors around.  This leads to confusion and
mistakes both during development and translation.

This adds new functions libpq_append_error() and
libpq_append_conn_error() that encapsulate common code paths for
producing error message strings.  Notably, these functions append the
newline, so that the string appearing in the code does not end with a
newline.  This makes (almost) all error message strings in libpq
uniform in this regard (and also consistent with how we handle it
outside of libpq code).  (There are a few exceptions that are
difficult to fit into this scheme, but they are only a few.)

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:

	https://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
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
