+ * Structure of tsvector datatype:

+ * 2) int4             size - number of lexemes or WordEntry array, which is the same
+ * 3) Array of WordEntry - sorted array, comparison based on word's length
+ *                                             and strncmp(). WordEntry->pos points number of

+ *                                             corresponding lexeme.
+ * 4) Lexeme's storage:
+ *       SHORTALIGNED(lexeme) and position information if it exists 
+ *       Position information: first int2 - is a number of positions and it 
+ *    follows array of WordEntryPos
