Tom Lane 20540710e8 Delete contrib/xml2's legacy implementation of xml_is_well_formed().
This function is unreferenced in modern usage; it was superseded in 9.1
by a core function of the same name.  It has been left in place in the C
code only so that pre-9.1 SQL definitions of the contrib/xml2 functions
would continue to work.  Six years seems like enough time for people to
have updated to the extension-style version of the xml2 module, so let's
drop this.

The key reason for not keeping it any longer is that we want to stick
an explicit PGDLLEXPORT into PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1(), and the similarity
of name to the core function creates a conflict that compilers will
complain about.

Extracted from a larger patch for that purpose.  I'm committing this
change separately to give it more visibility in the commit logs.

While at it, remove the documentation entry that claimed that
xml_is_well_formed() is a function provided by contrib/xml2, and
instead mention the even more ancient alias xml_valid().

Laurenz Albe, doc change by me

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------

This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree.  This does not preclude their
usefulness.

User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.

When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target.  You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.

Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types.  To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command.  In a fresh database,
you can simply do

    CREATE EXTENSION module_name;

See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
