Tom Lane dad4cb6258 Improve tuplestore.c to support multiple concurrent read positions.
This facility replaces the former mark/restore support but is otherwise
upward-compatible with previous uses.  It's expected to be needed for
single evaluation of CTEs and also for window functions, so I'm committing
it separately instead of waiting for either one of those patches to be
finished.  Per discussion with Greg Stark and Hitoshi Harada.

Note: I removed nodeFunctionscan's mark/restore support, instead of bothering
to update it for this change, because it was dead code anyway.

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/.
