Allow predicate_refuted_by() to deduce that NOT A refutes A.
We had originally made the stronger assumption that NOT A refutes any B
if B implies A, but this fails in three-valued logic, because we need to
prove B is false not just that it's not true. However the logic does
go through if B is equal to A.
Recognizing this limited case is enough to handle examples that arise when
we have simplified "bool_var = true" or "bool_var = false" to just "bool_var"
or "NOT bool_var". If we had not done that simplification then the
btree-operator proof logic would have been able to prove that the expressions
were contradictory, but only for identical expressions being compared to the
constants; so handling identical A and B covers all the same cases.
The motivation for doing this is to avoid unexpected asymmetrical behavior
when a partitioned table uses a boolean partitioning column, as in today's
gripe from Dominik Sander.

do anything at all with NOTs.

Allow zero-dimensional (ie, empty) arrays in contrib/ltree operations.
The main motivation for changing this is bug #4921, in which it's pointed out
that it's no longer safe to apply ltree operations to the result of
ARRAY(SELECT ...) if the sub-select might return no rows. Before 8.3,
the ARRAY() construct would return NULL, which might or might not be helpful
but at least it wouldn't result in an error. Now it returns an empty array
which results in a failure for no good reason, since the ltree operations
are all perfectly capable of dealing with zero-element arrays.

Reduce the rescan cost estimate for Materialize nodes to cpu_operator_cost per
tuple, instead of the former cpu_tuple_cost. It is sane to charge less than
cpu_tuple_cost because Materialize never does any qual-checking or projection,
so it's got less overhead than most plan node types. In particular, we want
to have the same charge here as is charged for readout in cost_sort. That
avoids the problem recently exhibited by Teodor wherein the planner prefers
a useless sort over a materialize step in a context where a lot of rescanning
will happen. The rescan costs should be just about the same for both node
types, so make their estimates the same.

Provide some rather hokey ways for EXPLAIN to print FieldStore and assignment
ArrayRef expressions that are not in the immediate context of an INSERT or

I chose to represent an assignment ArrayRef as "array[subscripts] := source",

FieldStore is problematic because the planner will fold multiple assignments

Make NOTIFY_PAYLOAD_MAX_LENGTH depend explicitly on BLCKSZ and
NAMEDATALEN, so this code doesn't go nuts with smaller than default
BLCKSZ or larger than default NAMEDATALEN. The standard value is
still exactly 8000.

Replace the pg_listener-based LISTEN/NOTIFY mechanism with an in-memory queue.
In addition, add support for a "payload" string to be passed along with
each notify event.
This implementation should be significantly more efficient than the old one,
and is also more compatible with Hot Standby usage. There is not yet any
facility for HS slaves to receive notifications generated on the master,
although such a thing is possible in future.

Clean up package namespace use and use of Safe in plperl.
Prevent use of another buggy version of Safe.pm.
Only register the exit handler if we have successfully created an interpreter.
Change log level of perl warnings from NOTICE to WARNING.
The infrastructure is there if in future we decide to allow
DBAs to specify extra modules that will be allowed in trusted code.
However, for now the relevant variables are declared as lexicals
rather than as package variables, so that they are not (or should not be)
accessible.
Mostly code from Tim Bunce, reviewed by Alex Hunsaker, with some
tweaks by me.
