Tom Lane 540849814c Doc: caution against misuse of 'now' and related datetime literals.
Section 8.5.1.4, which defines these literals, made only a vague
reference to the fact that they might be evaluated too soon to be
safe in non-interactive contexts.  Provide a more explicit caution
against misuse.  Also, generalize the wording in the related tip in
section 9.9.4: while it clearly described this problem, it implied
(or really, stated outright) that the problem only applies to table
DEFAULT clauses.

Per gripe from Tijs van Dam.  Back-patch to all supported branches.
