Tom Lane b7001c6b6a Tighten array dimensionality checks in Python -> SQL array conversion.
Like plperl before f47004add, plpython wasn't being sufficiently
careful about checking that list-of-list structures represent
rectangular arrays, so that it would accept some cases in which
different parts of the "array" are nested to different depths.
This was exacerbated by Python's weak distinction between
sequences and lists, so that in some cases strings could get
treated as though they are lists (and burst into individual
characters) even though a different ordering of the upper-level
list would give a different result.

Some of this behavior was unreachable (without risking a crash)
before 81eaaf65e.  It seems like a good idea to clean it all up
in the same releases, rather than shipping a non-crashing but
nonetheless visibly buggy behavior in the name of minimal change.
Hence, back-patch.

Per bug #17912 and further testing by Alexander Lakhin.

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/.
