costs using the inner path's parent->rows count as the number of tuples
processed per inner scan iteration.  This is wrong when we are using an
inner indexscan with indexquals based on join clauses, because the rows
count in a Relation node reflects the selectivity of the restriction
clauses for that rel only.  Upshot was that if join clause was very
selective, we'd drastically overestimate the true cost of the join.
Fix is to calculate correct output-rows estimate for an inner indexscan
when the IndexPath node is created and save it in the path node.
Change of path node doesn't require initdb, since path nodes don't
appear in saved rules.

Update those to latest Autoconf sources, too.

to simplify constant expressions and expand SubLink nodes into SubPlans
is done in a separate routine subquery_planner() that calls union_planner().
We formerly did most of this work in query_planner(), but that's the
wrong place because it may never see the real targetlist.  Splitting
union_planner into two routines also allows us to avoid redundant work
when union_planner is invoked recursively for UNION and inheritance
cases.  Upshot is that it is now possible to do something like
select float8(count(*)) / (select count(*) from int4_tbl)  from int4_tbl
group by f1;
which has never worked before.

transformExpr is never invoked on its own output, but that someday

incorrect descriptions of a couple of log-related functions.
I will not force an initdb for this, but log() on a numeric won't
work until you do one...

In function parsing, try for an actual function of the given name and
input types before trying to interpret the function call as a type
coercion request, rather than after.  Before, a function that had the
same name as a type and operated on a binary-compatible type wouldn't
get invoked.  Also, cross-pollinate between func_select_candidates and
oper_select_candidates to ensure that they use as nearly the same
resolution rules as possible.  A few other minor code cleanups too.

actually returns the type it is named for.

problem could be lack of parentheses.  This addresses cases like
X UserOp UserOp Y, which will be parsed as (X UserOp) UserOp Y,
whereas what likely was wanted was X UserOp (UserOp Y).

16-Mar-00: trailing + or - is not part of the operator unless the operator
also contains characters not present in SQL92-defined operators.  This
solves the 'X=-Y' problem without unduly constraining users' choice of
operator names --- in particular, no existing Postgres operator names
become invalid.

Also, remove processing of // comments, as agreed in the same thread.
