87b8db3774 Adjust the APIs for GIN opclass support functions to allow the extractQuery() 
method to pass extra data to the consistent() and comparePartial() methods.
This is the core infrastructure needed to support the soon-to-appear
contrib/btree_gin module.  The APIs are still upward compatible with the
definitions used in 8.3 and before, although *not* with the previous 8.4devel
function definitions.

catversion bump for changes in pg_proc entries (although these are just
cosmetic, since GIN doesn't actually look at the function signature before
calling it...)

ff301d6e69 Implement "fastupdate" support for GIN indexes, in which we try to accumulate 
multiple index entries in a holding area before adding them to the main index
structure.  This helps because bulk insert is (usually) significantly faster
than retail insert for GIN.

This patch also removes GIN support for amgettuple-style index scans.  The
API defined for amgettuple is difficult to support with fastupdate, and
the previously committed partial-match feature didn't really work with
it either.  We might eventually figure a way to put back amgettuple
support, but it won't happen for 8.4.

catversion bumped because of change in GIN's pg_am entry, and because
the format of GIN indexes changed on-disk (there's a metapage now,
and possibly a pending list).

471913a6a5 More fixes for 8.4 DTrace probes. Remove useless BUFFER_HIT/BUFFER_MISS 
probes --- the BUFFER_READ_DONE probe provides the same information and more
besides.  Expand the LOCK_WAIT_START/DONE probe arguments so that there's
actually some chance of telling what is being waited for.  Update and
clean up the documentation.

5698f6b925 Remove the -d and -D options of pg_dump and pg_dumpall. The functionality 
is still available, but you must now write the long equivalent --inserts
or --column-inserts.  This change is made to eliminate confusion with the
use of -d to specify a database name in most other Postgres client programs.
Original patch by Greg Mullane, modified per subsequent discussion.

0fd85d7879 Remove the datetime keywords ABSTIME and RELTIME, which we'd been treating as 
noise words for the last twelve years, for compatibility with Berkeley-era
output formatting of the special INVALID values for those datatypes.
Considering that the datatypes themselves have been deprecated for awhile,
this is taking backwards compatibility a little far.  Per gripe from Josh
Berkus.
