Instead of looking up casts at parse time for converting the result
of JsonPath* query functions to the specified or the default
RETURNING type, always perform the conversion at runtime using either
the target type's input function or the function
json_populate_type().
There are two motivations for this change:
1. json_populate_type() coerces to types with typmod such that any
string values that exceed length limit cause an error instead of
silent truncation, which is necessary to be standard-conforming.
2. It was possible to end up with a cast expression that doesn't
support soft handling of errors causing bugs in the of handling
ON ERROR clause.
JsonExpr.coercion_expr which would store the cast expression is no
longer necessary, so remove.
Bump catversion because stored rules change because of the above
removal.

This introduces the following SQL/JSON functions for querying JSON
data using jsonpath expressions:
JSON_EXISTS(), which can be used to apply a jsonpath expression to a
JSON value to check if it yields any values.
JSON_QUERY(), which can be used to to apply a jsonpath expression to
a JSON value to get a JSON object, an array, or a string. There are
various options to control whether multi-value result uses array
wrappers and whether the singleton scalar strings are quoted or not.
JSON_VALUE(), which can be used to apply a jsonpath expression to a
JSON value to return a single scalar value, producing an error if it
multiple values are matched.
Both JSON_VALUE() and JSON_QUERY() functions have options for
handling EMPTY and ERROR conditions, which can be used to specify
the behavior when no values are matched and when an error occurs
during jsonpath evaluation, respectively.

Previously, the JSON code didn't have to worry too much about freeing
JsonLexContext, because it was never too long-lived. With new features
being added for SQL/JSON this is no longer the case. Add a routine
that knows how to free this struct and apply that to a few places, to
prevent this from becoming problematic.
At the same time, we change the API of makeJsonLexContextCstringLen to
make it receive a pointer to JsonLexContext for callers that want it to
be stack-allocated; it can also be passed as NULL to get the original
behavior of a palloc'ed one.
This also causes an ABI break due to the addition of flags to
JsonLexContext, so we can't easily backpatch it. AFAICS that's not much
of a problem; apparently some leaks might exist in JSON usage of
text-search, for example via json_to_tsvector, but I haven't seen any
complaints about that.
Per Coverity complaint about datum_to_jsonb_internal().

This Patch introduces three SQL standard JSON functions:
JSON()
JSON_SCALAR()
JSON_SERIALIZE()
JSON() produces json values from text, bytea, json or jsonb values,
and has facilitites for handling duplicate keys.
JSON_SCALAR() produces a json value from any scalar sql value,
including json and jsonb.
JSON_SERIALIZE() produces text or bytea from input which containis
or represents json or jsonb;
For the most part these functions don't add any significant new
capabilities, but they will be of use to users wanting standard
compliant JSON handling.
Catversion bumped as this changes ruleutils.c.

This is to export datum_to_json(), datum_to_jsonb(), and
jsonb_from_cstring(), though the last one is exported as
jsonb_from_text().
A subsequent commit to add new SQL/JSON constructor functions will
need them for calling from the executor.

This essentially removes the JsonbTypeCategory enum and
jsonb_categorize_type() and integrates any jsonb-specific logic that
was in jsonb_categorize_type() into json_categorize_type(), now
moved to jsonfuncs.c. The remaining JsonTypeCategory enum and
json_categorize_type() cover the needs of the callers in both json.c
and jsonb.c. json_categorize_type() has grown a new parameter named
is_jsonb for callers to engage the jsonb-specific behavior of
json_categorize_type().
One notable change in the now exported API of json_categorize_type()
is that it now always returns *outfuncoid even though a caller may
have no need currently to see one.
This is in preparation of later commits to implement additional
SQL/JSON functions.

This patch introduces the SQL standard IS JSON predicate. It operates
on text and bytea values representing JSON, as well as on the json and
jsonb types. Each test has IS and IS NOT variants and supports a WITH
UNIQUE KEYS flag. The tests are:
IS JSON [VALUE]
IS JSON ARRAY
IS JSON OBJECT
IS JSON SCALAR
These should be self-explanatory.
The WITH UNIQUE KEYS flag makes these return false when duplicate keys
exist in any object within the value, not necessarily directly contained
in the outermost object.

This requires a bit of further infrastructure-extension to allow
trapping errors reported by numeric_in and pg_unicode_to_server,
but otherwise it's pretty straightforward.
In the case of jsonb_in, we are only capturing errors reported
during the initial "parse" phase. The value-construction phase
(JsonbValueToJsonb) can also throw errors if assorted implementation
limits are exceeded. We should improve that, but it seems like a
separable project.

This introduces the SQL/JSON functions for querying JSON data using
jsonpath expressions. The functions are:
JSON_EXISTS()
JSON_QUERY()
JSON_VALUE()
All of these functions only operate on jsonb. The workaround for now is
to cast the argument to jsonb.
JSON_EXISTS() tests if the jsonpath expression applied to the jsonb
value yields any values. JSON_VALUE() must return a single value, and an
error occurs if it tries to return multiple values. JSON_QUERY() must
return a json object or array, and there are various WRAPPER options for
handling scalar or multi-value results. Both these functions have
options for handling EMPTY and ERROR conditions.

To make this work, (1) makeJsonLexContextCstringLen now takes the
encoding to be used as an argument; (2) check_stack_depth() is made to
do nothing in frontend code, and (3) elog(ERROR, ...) is changed to
pg_log_fatal + exit in frontend code.

Specifically, move those functions that depend on ereport()
from jsonapi.c to jsonfuncs.c, in preparation for allowing
jsonapi.c to be used from frontend code.
A few cases where elog(ERROR, ...) is used for can't-happen
conditions are left alone; we can handle those in some other
way in frontend code.

The major change here is that we no longer include jsonb.h into
jsonapi.h. The reason that was necessary is that jsonapi.h included
several prototypes functions in jsonfuncs.c that depend on the Jsonb
type. Move those prototypes to a new header, jsonfuncs.h, and include
it where needed.
The other change is that JsonEncodeDateTime is now declared in
json.h rather than jsonapi.h.
Taken together, these steps eliminate all dependencies of jsonapi.h
on backend-only data types and header files, so that it can
potentially be included in frontend code.
