Here is another patch that fixes a stack of pg_dump bugs:
* Fix help text ordering
* Add back --set-session-authorization to pg_dumpall. Updated the docs
for that. Updated help for that.
* Dump ALTER USER commands for the cluster owner ("pgsql"). These are
dumped AFTER the create user and create database commands in case the
permissions to do these have been revoked.
* Dump ALTER OWNER for public schema (because it's possible to change
it). This was done by adding TOC entries for the public schema, and
filtering them out at archiver time. I also save the owner in the TOC
entry just for the public schema.
* Suppress dumping single quotes around schema_path and DateStyle
options when they are set using ALTER USER or ALTER DATABASE. Added a
comment to the steps in guc.c to remind people to update that list.
* Fix dumping in --clean mode against a pre-7.3 server. It just sets
all drop statements to assume the public schema, allowing it to restore
without error.
* Cleaned up text output. eg. Don't output -- Tablespaces comment if
there are none. Same for groups and users.
* Make the commands to DELETE FROM pg_shadow and DELETE FROM pg_group
only be output when -c mode is enabled. I'm not sure why that hasn't
been done before?!?!

regression dumping 7.0-7.4 databases.

The attached patch, which incorporates the previous one sent and
currently unapplied regarding spi_internal.c, makes some additional
fixes relating to return types, and also contains the fix for
preventing the use of insecure versions of Safe.pm.
There is one remaing return case that does not appear to work, namely
return of a composite directly in a select, i.e. if foo returns some
composite type, 'select * from foo()' works but 'select foo()' doesn't.
We will either fix that or document it as a limitation.
The function plperl_func_handler is a mess - I will try to get it
cleaned up (and split up) in a subsequent patch, time permitting.
Also, reiterating previous advice - this changes slightly the API for
spi_exec_query - the returned object has either 2 or 3 members: 'status'
(string) and 'proceesed' (int,- number of rows) and, if rows are
returned, 'rows' (array of tuple hashes).
