Tom Lane f90149e628 Don't use custom OID symbols in pg_type.dat, either. On the same reasoning as in commit `36b931214`, forbid using custom oid_symbol macros in pg_type as well as pg_proc, so that we always rely on the predictable macro names generated by genbki.pl. We do continue to grant grandfather status to the names CASHOID and LSNOID, although those are now considered deprecated aliases for the preferred names MONEYOID and PG_LSNOID. This is because there's likely to be client-side code using the old names, and this bout of neatnik-ism doesn't quite seem worth breaking client code. There might be a case for grandfathering EVTTRIGGEROID, too, since externally-maintained PLs may reference that symbol. But renaming such references to EVENT_TRIGGEROID doesn't seem like a particularly heavy lift --- we make far more significant backend API changes in every major release. For now I didn't add that, but we could reconsider if there's pushback. The other names changed here seem pretty unlikely to have any outside uses. Again, we could add alias macros if there are complaints, but for now I didn't. As before, no need for a catversion bump.

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/.
