Add a NodeTag field to struct Bitmapset. This is free because of alignment considerations on 64-bit hardware. While it adds some space on 32-bit machines, we aren't optimizing for that case anymore. The advantage is that data structures such as Lists of Bitmapsets are now first-class objects to the Node infrastructure, and don't require special-case code to handle. This patch includes removal of one such special case, in indxpath.c: bms_equal_any() can now be replaced by list_member(). There may be more existing code that could be simplified, but I didn't look very hard. We also get to drop the read_write_ignore annotations on a couple of RelOptInfo fields. The outfuncs/readfuncs support is arranged so that nothing changes in the string representation of a Bitmapset field; therefore, this doesn't need a catversion bump.

This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions.
