Michael Paquier 2cbc3c17a5 Rework logic and simplify syntax of REINDEX DATABASE/SYSTEM
Per discussion, this commit includes a couple of changes to these two
flavors of REINDEX:
* The grammar is changed to make the name of the object optional, hence
one can rebuild all the indexes of the wanted area by specifying only
"REINDEX DATABASE;" or "REINDEX SYSTEM;".  Previously, the object name
was mandatory and had to match the name of the database on which the
command is issued.
* REINDEX DATABASE is changed to ignore catalogs, making this task only
possible with REINDEX SYSTEM.  This is a historical change, but there
was no way to work only on the indexes of a database without touching
the catalogs.  We have discussed more approaches here, like the addition
of an option to skip the catalogs without changing the original
behavior, but concluded that what we have here is for the best.

This builds on top of the TAP tests introduced in 5fb5b6c, showing the
change in behavior for REINDEX SYSTEM.  reindexdb is updated so as we do
not issue an extra REINDEX SYSTEM when working on a database in the
non-concurrent case, something that was confusing when --concurrently
got introduced, so this simplifies the code.

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
