0cc59cc1f3 Add current WAL end (as seen by walsender, ie, GetWriteRecPtr() result) 
and current server clock time to SR data messages.  These are not currently
used on the slave side but seem likely to be useful in future, and it'd be
better not to change the SR protocol after release.  Per discussion.
Also do some minor code review and cleanup on walsender.c, and improve the
protocol documentation.

b12b7a9038 Change the notation for calling functions with named parameters from 
"val AS name" to "name := val", as per recent discussion.

This patch catches everything in the original named-parameters patch,
but I'm not certain that no other dependencies snuck in later (grepping
the source tree for all uses of AS soon proved unworkable).

In passing I note that we've dropped the ball at least once on keeping
ecpg's lexer (as opposed to parser) in sync with the backend.  It would
be a good idea to go through all of pgc.l and see if it's in sync now.
I didn't attempt that at the moment.

aa5bec67de Make it more clear that you need to release savepoint with 
RELEASE SAVEPOINT to make an older savepoint with the same name
accessible. It's also possible to implicitly release the savepoint by
rolling back to an earlier savepoint, but mentioning that too would make
the note just more verbose and confusing.

11f2efd12a Move pg_notify() details to a subsection within the NOTIFY reference page. 
This allows the index to reference the pg_notify() subsection specifically,
rather than Notes section of the NOTIFY reference page more generally.

6d932df652 Insert line breaks in two places in SQL functions documentation. 
This avoids a formatting problem in the PDF output.  In the HTML output this
isn't necessary, but we've done similar things elsewhere in the documentation
so I think it's OK to do it here, too.  I've refrained from breaking a longish
error message which also causes problems for the PDF output, because that would
make the HTML output look wrong.
