Noah Misch 9d7726c2ba Recommend wrappers of PG_DETOAST_DATUM_PACKED().
When commit 3e23b68dac introduced
single-byte varlena headers, its fmgr.h changes presented
PG_GETARG_TEXT_PP() and PG_GETARG_TEXT_P() as equals.  Its postgres.h
changes presented PG_DETOAST_DATUM_PACKED() and VARDATA_ANY() as the
exceptional case.  Now, instead, firmly recommend PG_GETARG_TEXT_PP()
over PG_GETARG_TEXT_P(); likewise for other ...PP() macros.  This shaves
cycles and invites consistency of style.

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.  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/.
