Alvaro Herrera 834a6da4f7 Update autovacuum to use reloptions instead of a system catalog, for 
per-table overrides of parameters.

This removes a whole class of problems related to misusing the catalog,
and perhaps more importantly, gives us pg_dump support for the parameters.

Based on a patch by Euler Taveira de Oliveira, heavily reworked by me.

<!-- $PostgreSQL: pgsql/doc/src/sgml/README.links,v 1.3 2009/01/10 16:58:39 momjian Exp $ -->

Linking within SGML documents can be confusing, so here is a summary:


Intra-document Linking
----------------------

<xref>
	use to get link text from the title of the target link; has no
	close tag
	http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/documentation/reference/html/xref.html

<link>
	use to supply text for the link, requires </link>
	http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/documentation/reference/html/link.html

linkend=
	controls the target of the link/xref, required

endterm=
	for <xref>, allows the text of the link/xref to be taken from a
	different link target title


External Linking
----------------

<ulink>
	like <link>, but uses a URL (not a document target);  requires
	</ulink>; if no text is specified, the URL appears as the link text
	http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/documentation/reference/html/ulink.html

url=
	used by <ulink> to specify the URL, required


Guidelines
----------

o  If you want to supply text, use <link>, else <xref>
o  Do not use text with <ulink> so the URL appears in printed output
o  You can supply text at the target location with 'xreflabel'
