Tom Lane 3d4a778152 Fix ancient violation of zlib's API spec.
contrib/pgcrypto mishandled the case where deflate() does not consume
all of the offered input on the first try.  It reset the next_in pointer
to the start of the input instead of leaving it alone, causing the wrong
data to be fed to the next deflate() call.

This has been broken since pgcrypto was committed.  The reason for the
lack of complaints seems to be that it's fairly hard to get stock zlib
to not consume all the input, so long as the output buffer is big enough
(which it normally would be in pgcrypto's usage; AFAICT the input is
always going to be packetized into packets no larger than ZIP_OUT_BUF).
However, IBM's zlibNX implementation for AIX evidently will do it
in some cases.

I did not add a test case for this, because I couldn't find one that
would fail with stock zlib.  When we put back the test case for
bug #16476, that will cover the zlibNX situation well enough.

While here, write deflate()'s second argument as Z_NO_FLUSH per its
API spec, instead of hard-wiring the value zero.

Per buildfarm results and subsequent investigation.

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:

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
