Tom Lane b163baa89c Clean up some problems with redundant cross-type arithmetic operators. Add
int2-and-int8 implementations of the basic arithmetic operators +, -, *, /.
This doesn't really add any new functionality, but it avoids "operator is not
unique" failures that formerly occurred in these cases because the parser
couldn't decide whether to promote the int2 to int4 or int8.  We could
alternatively have removed the existing cross-type operators, but
experimentation shows that the cost of an additional type coercion expression
node is noticeable compared to such cheap operators; so let's not give up any
performance here.  On the other hand, I removed the int2-and-int4 modulo (%)
operators since they didn't seem as important from a performance standpoint.
Per a complaint last January from ykhuang.

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.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  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/.
