Tom Lane 6f34fcbbd5 Fix conversion of JSON strings to JSON output columns in json_to_record(). 
json_to_record(), when an output column is declared as type json or jsonb,
should emit the corresponding field of the input JSON object.  But it got
this slightly wrong when the field is just a string literal: it failed to
escape the contents of the string.  That typically resulted in syntax
errors if the string contained any double quotes or backslashes.

jsonb_to_record() handles such cases correctly, but I added corresponding
test cases for it too, to prevent future backsliding.

Improve the documentation, as it provided only a very hand-wavy
description of the conversion rules used by these functions.

Per bug report from Robert Vollmert.  Back-patch to v10 where the
error was introduced (by commit cf35346e8).

Note that PG 9.4 - 9.6 also get this case wrong, but differently so:
they feed the de-escaped contents of the string literal to json[b]_in.
That behavior is less obviously wrong, so possibly it's being depended on
in the field, so I won't risk trying to make the older branches behave
like the newer ones.

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/.
