Tom Lane aeb1631ed2 Mostly-cosmetic adjustments of TOAST-related macros. 
The authors of bbe0a81db hadn't quite got the idea that macros named
like SOMETHING_4B_C were only meant for internal endianness-related
details in postgres.h.  Choose more legible names for macros that are
intended to be used elsewhere.  Rearrange postgres.h a bit to clarify
the separation between those internal macros and ones intended for
wider use.

Also, avoid using the term "rawsize" for true decompressed size;
we've used "extsize" for that, because "rawsize" generally denotes
total Datum size including header.  This choice seemed particularly
unfortunate in tests that were comparing one of these meanings to
the other.

This patch includes a couple of not-purely-cosmetic changes: be
sure that the shifts aligning compression methods are unsigned
(not critical today, but will be when compression method 2 exists),
and fix broken definition of VARATT_EXTERNAL_GET_COMPRESSION (now
VARATT_EXTERNAL_GET_COMPRESS_METHOD), whose callers worked only
accidentally.

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/.
