manipulations in this common case.  Makes for a small but noticeable
improvement in mergejoin speed.

Use initializer string length as size for character strings.
Added ecpg_config.h file that is created via configure.

of the transaction ID counter.  Nothing is done with the epoch except to
store it in checkpoint records, but this provides a foundation with which
add-on code can pretend that XIDs never wrap around.  This is a severely
trimmed and rewritten version of the xxid patch submitted by Marko Kreen.
Per discussion, the epoch counter seems the only part of xxid that really
needs to be in the core server.

by abandoning the idea that it should say SERIAL in the dump.  Instead,
dump serial sequences and column defaults just like regular ones.
Add a new backend command ALTER SEQUENCE OWNED BY to let pg_dump recreate
the sequence-to-column dependency that was formerly created "behind the
scenes" by SERIAL.  This restores SERIAL to being truly "just a macro"
consisting of component operations that can be stated explicitly in SQL.
Furthermore, the new command allows sequence ownership to be reassigned,
so that old mistakes can be cleaned up.

Also, downgrade the OWNED-BY dependency from INTERNAL to AUTO, since there
is no longer any very compelling argument why the sequence couldn't be
dropped while keeping the column.  (This forces initdb, to be sure the
right kinds of dependencies are in there.)

Along the way, add checks to prevent ALTER OWNER or SET SCHEMA on an
owned sequence; you can now only do this indirectly by changing the
owning table's owner or schema.  This is an oversight in previous
releases, but probably not worth back-patching.

each object to be deleted, instead of the previous hack that just skipped
INTERNAL dependencies, which didn't really work.  Per report from Tom Lane.

To do this, introduce a new performMultipleDeletions entry point in
dependency.c to delete multiple objects at once.  The dependency code then has
the responsability of tracking INTERNAL and AUTO dependencies as needed.

Along the way, change ObjectAddresses so that we can allocate an ObjectAddress
list from outside dependency.c and not have to export the internal
representation.

slightly tighter version of Jaime Casanova's recent patch.
