The "count" argument of SPI_exec() only limits execution when the query is actually returning rows. This was not the case before PG 9.0, so this example was correct when written; but we missed updating it in commit 2ddc600f8. Extend the example to show the behavior both with and without RETURNING. While here, improve the commentary and markup for the rest of the example. David G. Johnston and Tom Lane, per report from Curt Kolovson. Back-patch to all supported branches.
