Repair failure to check that a table is still compatible with a previously
made query plan. Use of ALTER COLUMN TYPE creates a hazard for cached
query plans: they could contain Vars that claim a column has a different
type than it now has. Fix this by checking during plan startup that Vars
at relation scan level match the current relation tuple descriptor. Since
at that point we already have at least AccessShareLock, we can be sure the
column type will not change underneath us later in the query. However,
since a backend's locks do not conflict against itself, there is still a
hole for an attacker to exploit: he could try to execute ALTER COLUMN TYPE
while a query is in progress in the current backend. Seal that hole by
rejecting ALTER TABLE whenever the target relation is already open in
the current backend.
This is a significant security hole: not only can one trivially crash the
backend, but with appropriate misuse of pass-by-reference datatypes it is
possible to read out arbitrary locations in the server process's memory,
which could allow retrieving database content the user should not be able
to see. Our thanks to Jeff Trout for the initial report.

Repair insufficiently careful type checking for SQL-language functions:
we should check that the function code returns the claimed result datatype
every time we parse the function for execution. Formerly, for simple
scalar result types we assumed the creation-time check was sufficient, but
this fails if the function selects from a table that's been redefined since
then, and even more obviously fails if check_function_bodies had been OFF.

(and hence autovacuum) failing under more than minimal load. Diagnosis
and patch by Magnus Hagander.
Patch probably needs to be back-ported to 8.1 and 8.0, but first let's
see if it makes the buildfarm happy...

Squelch some VC++ compiler warnings. Mark float literals with the "f"
suffix, to distinguish them from doubles. Make some function declarations
and definitions use the "const" qualifier for arguments consistently.
Ignore warning 4102 ("unreferenced label"), because such warnings
are always emitted by bison-generated code. Patch from Magnus Hagander.

Add a setlocal command to the beginning of build.bat. This is required
to deal with buildenv.bat properly, so that PATH (for example) doesn't
expand infintly. Per report from Joachim Wieland, patch from Magnus.

Removed compiler warning due to unneeded unsigned declaration.
Removed regression test that triggers those libc precision bugs on some archs.

Various fixes in the logic of XML functions:
- Add new SQL command SET XML OPTION (also available via regular GUC) to
control the DOCUMENT vs. CONTENT option in implicit parsing and
serialization operations.
- Subtle corrections in the handling of the standalone property in
xmlroot().
- Allow xmlroot() to work on content fragments.
- Subtle corrections in the handling of the version property in
xmlconcat().
- Code refactoring for producing XML declarations.

Fix for plpython functions; return true/false for boolean,
rather than 1/0. This helps when creating trigger functions that output
SQL.
