Robert Haas 39a68e5c6c Fix toast table creation.
Instead of using slightly-too-clever heuristics to decide when we must
create a TOAST table, just check whether one is needed every time the
table is altered.  Checking whether a toast table is needed is cheap
enough that we needn't worry about doing it on every ALTER TABLE command,
and the previous coding is apparently prone to accidental breakage:
commit 04e17bae50 broken ALTER TABLE ..
SET STORAGE, which moved some actions from AT_PASS_COL_ATTRS to
AT_PASS_MISC, and commit 6c57239985 broke
ALTER TABLE .. ADD COLUMN by changing the way that adding columns
recurses into child tables.

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.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  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/.
