Alvaro Herrera b66adb7b0c Revert "Permit dump/reload of not-too-large >1GB tuples"
This reverts commits fa2fa99552 and 42f50cb8fa.

While the functionality that was intended to be provided by these
commits is desired, the patch didn't actually solve as many of the
problematic situations as we hoped, and it created a bunch of its own
problems.  Since we're going to require more extensive changes soon for
other reasons and users have been working around these problems for a
long time already, there is no point in spending effort in fixing this
halfway measure.

Per complaint from Tom Lane.

(Commit fa2fa99552 had already been reverted in branches 9.5 as
f858524ee4 and 9.6 as e9e44a0953, so this touches master only.
Commit 42f50cb8fa was not present in the older branches.)

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/.
